In summary, "Seasons Greetings" was first used in the early 19th century as a way to wish someone well during the holiday season without specifying a particular holiday. It is inclusive of a variety of holidays such as Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year's. This phrase is considered more inclusive than "Merry Christmas" because it respects diversity and allows individuals to celebrate their own holiday in their own way. To celebrate the holiday season in an environmentally friendly way, you can use eco-friendly decorations, choose sustainable gifts, and reduce food waste. To spread joy and cheer, you can volunteer, donate, or support small businesses and artists.
