Go Green Breathe Clean, We have got only one Earth

Day:06 Celebrating an eco-friendly Diwali

Celebrating an eco-friendly Diwali is a wonderful way to show our commitment to the environment. One of the most impactful ways to do so is by planting trees. Trees not only add to the beauty of our surroundings but also play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance. By planting trees during Diwali, we can offset the environmental impact of fireworks and reduce air pollution. This small act can go a long way in preserving our planet and ensuring a brighter, cleaner future for generations to come. So, let's light up our lives with the beauty of nature by planting trees and nurturing the Earth during the festival of lights.

Day:05 Firecracker Alternatives

Celebrate Diwali the eco-friendly way by using eco-friendly firecrackers instead of the ones which create pollution. Take care of your respiratory organs by wearing a mask since the AQI continues to be between 460 & 490 in Delhi /NCR.

Day:04 Diwali with Electric vehicles

Encourage the use of electric vehicles for travel during festival and reduce carbon emissions.

Day:03 Embracing Nature's Hues: Let's Rethink Rangoli

Join us in this eye-opening journey where students shed light on the dark side of chemical-based rangoli colors. Our planet deserves better!

Discover how we can create stunning patterns using eco-friendly materials and recycled treasures. Bits of reused paper and leaves become our canvas, weaving art from the heart.

And don't forget the plastic waste! We've turned plastic into beauty, creating colorful designs that echo a message of sustainability. #EcoRangoli #SustainableArt #EcoFriendlyLiving #PlasticRevival

Day:02 Local and Sustainable Sweets:

Emphasize the importance : of supporting local artisans and using sustainable ingredients in making Diwali sweets and snacks.

Day:01

Green or eco-friendly Diwali is the same as the festival of lights we celebrate every year at NPSC , but the difference is that we also ensure that the environment isn't harmfully impacted.

A green Diwali is a festival in which we avoid carelessness and behave like responsible citizens to protect our environment.

Don't Act Mean, Go Green. Celebrate An Eco-Friendly Diwali This Year.”

CAMPAIGN FOR SUSTAINABLE LIVING!

NPSC launches Climate Action Campaign with an objective of disseminating knowledge and good practices for sustainable use of natural resources and to sensitise the youth towards reducing their carbon footprint. Science has already spoken about the dire emergency that stares us in the face; the UN chief has sounded “Code Red for humanity” based on the findings of climate scientists. Climate change is a long-term shift in global or regional climate patterns. Often climate change refers specifically to the rise in global temperatures from the mid-20th century to the present. Climate change threatens people with food and water scarcity, increased flooding, extreme heat, more diseases, and economic loss. Even if efforts to minimize future warming are successful, some effects will continue for centuries. These include sea-level rise and warmer, more acidic oceans. Let us all pledge towards greener earth by making climate-healthy choices and contributing towards a sustainable future.

Joy of Giving

the best way to raise the standard of living is by raising the standard of giving!
Even a small gesture is capable enough to bring a smile on someone's face,
and a small initiative is sufficient to brighten someone's life!

Decluttering Our Minds

Clutter smothers. Simplicity breathes. Amidst the rare streaks of happy thoughts, we host innumerable unhappy ones in our minds. Self-pity, self-doubt, and anguish play a big role in harbouring negativity in our minds. It seems essential that we learn to untangle our minds from this traffic of negative thoughts, for the sake of our mental and emotional well-being.
So, this festive season, let us try and declutter our minds. Let us not only Marie Kondo our house but also our soul. Let us acknowledge our feelings and dispose of any grudges and prejudices which hold us back. Let us create space for the light of love, laughter, and joy to fill our hearts.
Our life is shaped by our mind, for we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.- Buddha

Say No to Child Labour

We all enjoy the glittering illuminating explosions of fireworks. How long does the amusement last, 2-3hours? But, do we all know the cost at which we have the moment of adrenaline rush?
Every year hundreds and thousands of children are pushed into the darkness of working in the firework industry, which lights up our Diwali night but scars underage children for a lifetime. Juveniles in firework factories across India suffer physically with bruises, burns, chemical reactions and mental distress.
They aren’t a marionette but the future of our nation, so let’s not manipulate them with strings but give them wings to fly. Say NO to crackers and light up someone’s life.
As rightly said by Nelson Mandela
“There can be no keener revelation of the society’s soul than the way in which it treats its
children”
So, let’s pledge together to celebrate a cracker free Diwali. Begin with yourself first, spread the awareness and make this a movement.
