Christmas tree, which is better?

 

From ABC News Headquarters, this is World News with Charles Gibson. ‘Tis <방언, 구어> it is의 단축형 the season for peace and love and happiness. But forget all of that. We found the controversy. We’re getting right to it. Which is better? Smell of a genuine tree or one of those fake 가짜의 numbers? Yeah, well, there are pros and cons 찬반양론 to each. We’ve been debating about it this whole time. ABC’s Bill Weir found out in the….. very in-depth 상세한 investigation.

 

It’s the battle of the branches, nature’s creation vs. man-made. “There it is.” Which one stands as the foliage 잎 of choice this time of year? Well, depends on who you ask. “Real trees for real people.” “It’s more practical 실용적인, I think, to have a fake tree. For us, anyway.” “Get the biggest aluminum tree you can find, Charlie Brown. Maybe painted pink.”

 

More than half of all Christmas trees in American homes are made in China. Last year alone, an estimated 9.3 million artificial 인공적인 trees were sold in this country. That is a 2 million tree bump 격상 from just 5 years ago. “Uh, just the non maintenance 유지, 지속 of it and the beauty of it.”

 

So let’s go through the pros and cons. Dried-up 바싹 마른 natural trees cause almost 200 house fires a year while artificial trees are fire-resistant 내화성의 and allergen 알레르겐, <알레르기를 일으키는 물질>-free. They can also be reused or donated even if they’re not biodegradable 미생물에 의해 무해 물질로 분해되는.

 

But for some, there’s no replacing the smell of a freshly 싱싱하게 cut pine. “So when you comin’ home from work and you smell the pine in the home, it’s good. You know, everyone enjoys it.” What would Santa choose? “I think Santa has a real tree because he lives in the North Pole and he likes trees.” True? “I have a whole bunch of real trees around the North Pole. But inside the house, I have a fake tree. It’s less work.”
