President Biden pardons his son. And, which Christmas trees are more sustainable
- President Biden has pardoned his son Hunter Biden, who he says was "selectively and unfairly prosecuted." And, a look into whether real or fake Christmas trees are better for the environment.
The article from KGOU discusses two main topics. Firstly, President Joe Biden has pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, for tax evasion charges, marking a significant and controversial use of presidential clemency. This decision has sparked debate over the ethics of presidential pardons, especially when they involve family members. Secondly, the article delves into the sustainability of Christmas trees, comparing real versus artificial options. It highlights that while artificial trees can be reused over many years, their production involves non-renewable materials and significant energy consumption. Conversely, real trees are renewable, support local economies, and can be recycled or composted, although their environmental impact depends on transportation and disposal methods. The piece concludes by suggesting that the most sustainable choice might be a living, potted tree that can be replanted after the holiday season.
