There is a rule of basic questions that any article should answer (questions: who, what, when, where, why and how). I made such an article as part of the discipline.
Live Christmas trees are no longer on trend.
Residents of Russia began to prefer artificial Christmas trees to live ones.In Russia, over the past three years, the volume of harvesting of Christmas trees has decreased by 30%. This was reported in the press service of the FSBI "Roslesinforg", noting that such a trend is observed this year.
This trend in the department was associated, among other things, with the growth of environmental literacy of citizens, as well as with the desire to reduce New Year's expenses.
In addition, Russians refuse live Christmas trees because of their unwillingness to spend time on annual purchase and disposal. In addition, many citizens are allergic to natural trees.
Roslesinforg estimates that spruce reserves in the Russian Federation amount to 9.9 billion cubic meters. Christmas trees grow on an area of 76.6 million hectares.
