Alternatives to a Hectic and Expensive Holiday

How will you celebrate the holidays this year? Will you max out your credit cards buying gifts for everyone you know? Will you celebrate an “Alt-Christmas” by baking cookies for everyone or making your gifts by hand? How do you plan to handle the stress of the holidays? We’ll spend this hour with Nicole Berckes of the Center for a New American Dream, and organization dedicated to helping Americans consume responsibly to protect the environment, enhance their quality of life, and promote social justice. The Center has just published its 2006 Holiday Survival Kit at newdream.org.
