Abstract

In this #Engshort, we ask the question... Could Santa go electric? We could all do with being a little greener and making more #sustainablechoices, even #Santa! šŸŽ…šŸ¼ ā€˜Reindeer magic’ may be cleaner than petrol or diesel, but those reindeer still produce a lot of harmful methane. The big question is, could Santa ever #goelectric?
