Advantages Of Christmas Tree

Imagine if there were no Christmas trees on Christmas. How would it feel? Till this day in almost every American household there is at least one Christmas tree. The Christmas tree is one of the symbols and early traditions from the pagans that early Roman Catholics adopted. Although, the Roman Catholic Church perceived sinful and unacceptable some of the pagan traditions such as the value and behavior that the Anglo-Saxons had towards their cattle and how they sacrificed them to their idols. The church had to synchronize and blend some pagan traditions so they could influence their new strategy to evangelize and attract the heathens.

An artificial tree needs to be reused for many years to make it more environmentally friendly than buying a fresh cut tree annually. According to forester Bill Cook, a fake tree would have to be used for more than eight to nine years. A 2009 study out of Montreal, however, concluded it would take more than 20 years of use to make it a more nature friendly choice.

(Lovetoknow Corp. "Pine Trees.") Even though these trees last for quite a long time they still have diseases. Some examples are, the canker disease, needle cast, white pine blister rust, root rot and beetle infestation. (Lovetoknow Corp. "Pine Trees.") Most of these disease makes the trees crack in half.

Christmas like Thanksgiving believe it or not, do happen to share many traits. One major factor that the two own is the warmth and love of bringing family and close friends together. It’s the few times a year that everyone has a reason to all gather around to

Every year, my family drives down to Banner Elk to pick out a Christmas tree the weekend after Thanksgiving. This excursion has evolved from a fun family trip to becoming an expectation within the family. It is rare to get all five of us together now that the eldest one attends college, and the youngest one always seems to have something better to do. However, never once have I or my brothers complained about waking up at 7:30 in the morning to go Christmas tree shopping. “It’s something about the smell of freshly cut firs and warm apple cider...the thought of the holiday seasons keep us going when we would otherwise have no interest” (Correll). Banner Elk is not only associated with annual traditions to me, but also to the rest of my family, which is why Banner Elk is seemingly a part of our families culture and something we all consider to be our “happy

Based on the current conditions of the area, we hypothesis that tree survivability will be highest in elevations above 3,000 feet and below 3,300 feet, highest in slopes between 0 - 45 degrees, and highest in aspects between 0 - 33 degrees. Tree survivability will also be highest in area with the best soil, water quality, and forest health conditions for successful tree sapling growth.

Elf (2003) is a Christmas movie and with saying that, people expect to see Christmas decorations, lights, music, and costumes to make the audience feel like it really is Christmas.

A Christmas Carol takes place during the 1800’s, so the buildings and costumes must reflect this time period. In both the movie and play, actors wore large ballgowns or velvet suits. The costumes in the play seemed more cheap than those in the movie. This is because the actors have to go through costume changes in a quicker fashion in the play than they do in the movie, so the designers have to choose cheap material that is easy for the person wearing it to move around in and quickly change out of. The play also needed to use moveable sets so that the actors could travel from Scrooge’s house to a cemetery without waiting for a tech crew to set up a whole new area. In the movie, the cameramen could take their camera’s to any location and film, so that it seemed like the events in this movie really were taking place during the 1800’s and they really were at a certain setting. Depending on the setting, the lighting in both adaptations would change. In the movie, the lighting would change depending on if the characters were located in a brightly lit place, like a house or the outdoors.
