Environmentalists, meanwhile, suggest studies shouldn't be the only evidence consumers take into account. It's worth noting the endgame for both options: If real trees end up in a landfill and don't break down, they're still storing all the carbon they absorbed in life. And if they're mulched, they're being reused for greener purposes. Most artificial trees aren't recyclable.
