The Vatican Recycles
In 2008, the Vatican will be recycling their Christmas tree. The tree in St. Peter's Square will be chopped down this year, and the wood will be used to make school benches and toys for under-privileged children. The tree is an Austrian red spruce and is the tallest tree the square has seen since the tradition of setting up a tree was established in 1982 by Pope John Paul II.Times Online: "Green" Vatican to recycle Christmas tree -
