It has been five years since the Taliban retook control of Afghanistan, as western forces left, imposing their extreme, ultra-conservative interpretation of Islam on millions of people.
Their return to power brought relative peace to the country after two decades of war.
But Afghan women have been erased from public life. Girls are banned from school from the age of 12, and aren’t allowed to go to university.
Public parks are also off limits to women – and they can’t travel abroad without a male companion.

The trees are grown to be used then burnt. Even if it goes to landfill it still only releases CO2 that it originally took in from the atmosphere so not including transporting costs it’s carbon neutral

If you live anywhere near a farming area, you can also dispose of 🎄s by feeding them to certain farm animals (goats🐐 are best, but do research beforehand).
