Editor,
Diwali is a festival of fun and laughter, but celebrating the festival does not necessarily mean it has to be harmful to the planet.
Firecrackers release a lot of smoke, causing both air and noise pollution. This causes health hazards, especially to the old and
sick people. So let’s celebrate an ecofriendly/green Diwali. These days, green Diwali is being promoted. It is recommended that we use only organic materials for celebrating the festival and avoid bursting firecrackers.
