Between Amazon deliveries, Holiday Cards you don’t know what to do with and the wrapping paper aftermath of Christmas morning- the Holiday’s can amount to a whole lot of GARBAGE. There are some ways to minimize your trash footprint this year and one of them will even earn you some free tacos (UH, YUM..)
