SEATTLE (Recycling Monster): According to Emily Colpack and Amelia Dobbs of the University of Alabama at Birmingham Green Labs, encouraging sustainable habits can help cut waste. According to them, the minor adjustments could help maintain Halloween's environmental friendliness.

They say it's important to notice that eco-friendly resources like cardboard boxes and leftover cloth are used to make Halloween costumes. One might use natural dyes like turmeric or beetroot juice in place of chemical paint. These supplies provide Halloween costumes a unique look while also assisting with trash reduction.

Using environmentally friendly outdoor decorations helps keep animals from becoming ill from consuming them. These sustainable substitute materials give Halloween festivities a more organic feel. They said that using actual pumpkins is always preferred over artificial ones because they are easily recyclable or reusable.

Carpooling is suggested by Colpack and Debbs for trick-or-treating. Children have a lot more fun on the voyage when they are with family and friends. It will also contribute to reducing carbon emissions. Additionally, cloth bags might be used to gather treats instead of disposable ones. Digital invitations could prevent a significant amount of paper waste.

After Halloween, the decorations could be reused or donated. Composting is also a good idea for organic waste.
