The agencies also discourage Oregonians from putting Christmas trees or branches into woodstoves or fireplaces. "W rapping paper in a fireplace or woodstove can get out o f control. People tend to overload the firebox with paper and it gets hot too fast,” says O lin Greene. Oregon State Fire Marshal. “ Also, partially burned pieces o f paper can drift up the chimney, sending embers onto the ro o f." According to Greene, flash fires can result from burning wrappings, trees or branches in woodstoves or fireplaces. The D E Q is concerned also about the pollutants from burning wrap ping paper and trees Depending upon the inks and coatings on the paper, there may be toxic fumes re leased. Also, burning wrapping pa per creates a lot o f ash which can make its way up the chimney and into the outdoor air. To safely reuse, recycle or dispose of wrapping paper, Greene suggests rolling the paper on tubes or folding it up immediately alter opening pre sents. Loose piles of paper and boxes can be a fire hazard. Some Oregon recyclers will accept wrapping paper for recycling if it is not foil-lined It is more energy e ffi cient to recycle paper than it is to burn it.
