My Aunt posed this question to me, and I didn’t know the answer to it. I got interested so, I looked up What Happens To The Christmas Tree at Rockefeller Center After The Holidays? and I came upon this site. This website has a lot of ads that can be annoying but, it is a really interesting article. I hope you find it as cool as I did!

Spoiler Alert: I’m happy the way they use the tree after the holidays! The Christmas tree really lit up my holidays, and when we were in New York we went and saw that tree over 4 times. I’m glad they use the Christmas trees for a good cause or otherwise, I would feel guilty that I was supporting a beautiful Christmas tree that would go to waste.

Hello Anna, That was really cool how they reuse the tree. I am wondering how much energy the trees led lights use compared to my house.
Nico.

Hi Nico! That is a great question! I never really thought about that before. Now I’m interested to find out how much energy all those lights use!

FIVE MILES of lighting! Wow! That’s awesome that they donate wood to Habitat for Humanity.
