Green Diwali

Dear Frndz,

The excitement and celebratory spirit that Diwali brings is unmatchable. Celebrating Diwali with friends and family has its own charm.

We know that diyas lit on the moonless Diwali night signifies the end of darkness of ignorance and the beginning of light that enlightens all? Well, this Diwali enlighten yourself towards the hazards that boisterous celebrations of Diwali poses to our environment.

Celebrate this Diwali with poor and under-privilege children. Share your Diwali crackers, sweets and happiness with poor children. 

I hope that this post will encourage you to celebrate a green Diwali, where there will be an explosion of joy without crackers.



1.    Illuminate the house with earthen lamps instead of electric bulbs. This will not just make the house stand apart, but save on electricity consumption as well.

2.    If bursting crackers is part of the celebrations, make it a collective neighborhood affair. Enjoy them for a limited period of time so that they have a minimal effect. This will ensure reduced cost of celebration; paper pollution in a limited space and as compared to individual celebration, community celebration will cause less air and noise pollution.

3.    Always buy low intensity crackers – 'bombs' that do not sound like nukes, and crackers that do not emit too many harmful chemicals with the smoke.

4.    Buy crackers that emit brilliant light but not ear-splitting noise. You can have your fun and protect the environment as well.

These were some of the environment friendly tips for celebrating Eco Diwali. In case you have some more ideas and tips of celebrating Green Diwali then please use our comment section to share it with us.
