For Earth Day today conservation is key. People everywhere are celebrating this day by planting trees or renewing their commitment to saving the environment. While you are celebrating the earth today, though, why not use sky lanterns? Recent news has discussed some issues pertaining to sky lanterns in that they are not ecologically friendly. All sky lanterns are biodegradable. However, there is a bit of metal that takes a bit longer to degrade than the rest of the lantern. But, those times are changing. Now there is a new and improved sky lantern available on the market that is even more eco friendly. If going green is your goal for this year, consider using eco lanterns for all your celebrations.

What is different about eco lanterns?

All sky lanterns available are beautiful additions to any celebration. They are flame retardant and safe for use. So what is so different about eco lanterns? The primary difference is that they are 100% biodegradable and contain no metal parts whatsoever. The exclusion of any metal on the eco sky lanterns makes them degrade faster. Although all sky lanterns are biodegradable, the eco lanterns will degrade at a much faster rate with exposure to the elements. You will be sure that after you launch the lanterns into the sky that they will be completely safe when they land. Animals coming across them will not be harmed by any of the materials and the environment won’t be harmed because they will quickly degrade with no evidence they were there remaining.

What are the product specifications of the eco lanterns?

There are two different types of eco lanterns available. One comes in the traditional white and one has assorted colours. The coloured eco lanterns are slightly larger than the traditional ones and come in packs of five. You can choose from five colours including white, red, pink, blue or orange. Or, you can opt for the mixed colour package that comes with an assortment of colours. Each sky lantern is individually wrapped for easy storage and they are very compact. You can store them until you are ready to use them. The fuel cells are attached making the lantern quick and easy to launch. Because these sky lanterns are 100% biodegradable and are also flame resistant, the lanterns are the safest available for use on the market today!

Use eco lanterns for all you celebrations and get togethers

When you have any type of gathering, whether formal or informal, eco lanterns are a great way to enhance the festive spirit. Informal gatherings such as a child’s birthday party or backyard barbecue for a sporting event are perfect times to launch eco friendly lanterns. You can even personalize the lanterns by writing messages on them before setting them to the sky. Formal events such as weddings are also perfect times for using eco lanterns. This is a traditional time to launch the lanterns and with it send your well wishes and good luck thoughts to the heavens.
