Eco-Friendly Diwali…………Reflection




Boom! Boom! It's Diwali!!! To celebrate an eco-friendly Diwali it requires really less effort. People forget about the noise pollution that is caused by the crackers. This "Festival of lights" takes up a lot of light i.e. electricity. The eco- friendly way of lighting up the houses should be by lighting diyas (clay lamps) which does not consume any electricity. People should not buy such loud crackers. This can make us temporarily deaf or even have a permanent effect! Do not celebrate Diwali with crackers. Do you even know where crackers come from? They come from factories where children under the age of 14 work are forced to make these crackers. These crackers are made with deadly chemicals that can cause diseases to these children. On top of that children aged 14 and under are not allowed to work in factories!! We have to be very careful next time we celebrate Diwali because it may be fun to a few but it does a lot of damage to the world. A safe Diwali can make the Earth Green!!
A green Diwali , A clean Earth.

I believe we should celebrate the true spirit of Diwali with the belief that we should celebrate in an eco-friendly enthusiastic way. For example, instead of putting electrical lights in your house and leaving them on for a long time, we can use oil lamps and leave them on for a short time. That way we consume less electricity! Also, fireworks pollute the atmosphere and make the air less polluted, so why not use sparklers? It’s very fun and creates less pollution on Earth. This way we can still enjoy and have fun at the time of Diwali! Many people leave the remains of the bombs and explosions on the ground. This is a very wrong thing to do because the chemicals that remain in the remains of the bombs can cause metal fume fever and diseases that harm us- Humans! It also causes bad effects on Earth and affects our way of living. So we should celebrate Diwali in an eco-friendly way or Earth would not be safe for us to live on. Keep Earth green. Celebrate Diwali in a healthy way! Keep Earth safe!
