In the face of escalating pollution levels, this year let's encourage eco-friendly Diwali. Here we bring to you 7 ideas for truly eco-friendly diwali. Tap to see!
Opt for plantable Diwali cards made from recycled paper embedded with seeds. Once the festivities are over, recipients can plant the cards, and beautiful plants will sprout, leaving a lasting eco-friendly impact.
Create vibrant decorations using recycled materials such as old newspapers, cardboard, and glass bottles. Get creative with paint and embellishments to craft unique and environmentally friendly decor items.
Choose reusable diyas made from materials like clay or metal, and invest in durable lanterns that can be used for years to come, reducing waste and promoting sustainability.
Design your rangoli using natural materials like flower petals, leaves, and colored rice instead of synthetic powders. This not only enhances the beauty but also minimizes environmental impact.
Opt for eco-friendly gifts such as potted plants, organic products, or reusable items, promoting sustainability and reducing the generation of non-biodegradable waste.
Prepare or purchase sweets with minimal packaging, or better yet, make your own treats to share with family and friends in reusable containers, cutting down on excess waste.
Instead of traditional fireworks, consider contributing to a charitable cause. Redirecting funds from fireworks to a donation can positively impact those in need while minimizing air and noise pollution associated with fireworks.
