Dreaming of a ‘Green’ Christmas

by Eddie Rayner

Dubai’s only in-door rainforest, The Green Planet has announced that it will be a very merry (and sustainable) Christmas this year at the tropical indoor eco-system, located in City Walk Dubai.

As the season of giving, The Green Planet is encouraging residents and visitors to give back to the environment this Christmas. To mark the occasion, explorers will be gifted their very own Plant seeds when visiting The Green Planet. The special seeds will allow nature-enthusiasts to plant their own piece of nature at home.

The Green Planet is also challenging explorers across the UAE to create their own recyclable wreaths. Between 13 – 31 December, The Green Planet will be welcoming recyclable wreathes from far and wide to transform the indoor rainforest into a festive paradise.

What’s more, all explorers who create their own sustainable wreaths will enter a special draw to select one lucky explorer who will win ‘A Zookeeper for The Day’ experience for four people at The Green Planet.

The Green Planet’s famous Thunderstorm shows which take place daily at 1.00 pm and 5.00 pm will also have a festive twist throughout December. As well as including an education message to all, the daily shows will now include some very special Christmas carols for all to sing and dance to (people and animals alike).

To complete the festive period at The Green Planet, the café will be transformed into a winter wonderland with several large Christmas trees located throughout the rainforest, all of which will be made out of recyclable materials including plastic bottles, cardboard and cans.
