Eco friendly Sankranthi celebrations

Sankranti is a festival that celebrates the end of winter and the start of the harvest season. 
It is a day to give thanks to the sun and nature for their bounty.  
ways of celebrating eco friendly Sankranti :
Celebrating Sankranti in an eco-friendly way is a great way to honor the festival's spirit while minimizing harm to the environment. Here are some ideas:
 
Eco-Friendly Celebrations
1. *Use biodegradable materials*: Replace plastic and synthetic materials with biodegradable alternatives like clay, wood, or natural fibers for decorations and utensils.
2. *Make traditional sweets at home*: Instead of buying sweets wrapped in plastic, make traditional Sankranti sweets at home using natural ingredients and minimal packaging.
3. *Use natural colors*: Use natural colors like turmeric, vermilion, and flower petals to decorate and color your surroundings instead of synthetic dyes.
4. *Avoid single-use plastics*: Refuse single-use plastics like straws, cups, and plates. Instead, opt for reusable alternatives like cloth bags, steel cups, and wooden utensils.
5. *Plant trees and flowers*: Plant trees and flowers in your community or backyard to promote greenery and celebrate the festival's theme of renewal.
some ideas:
1. *Eco-friendly kite-making*: Use natural materials like silk, cotton, and bamboo to make kites instead of plastic and synthetic materials.
2. *Organize a community clean-up*: Organize a community clean-up event to collect plastic waste and other non-biodegradable materials.
3. *Create a sustainable rangoli*: Use natural materials like flowers, leaves, and rice flour to create a sustainable rangoli design.
4. *Host a zero-waste Sankranti party*: Plan a zero-waste Sankranti party by using reusable decorations, serving food in biodegradable containers, and avoiding single-use plastics.
 
Personal Pledges
1. *Reduce energy consumption*: Make a personal pledge to reduce energy consumption by using energy-efficient appliances and turning off lights when not in use.
2. *Conserve water*: Conserve water by taking shorter baths, fixing leaks, and using water-efficient appliances.
3. *Reduce food waste*: Plan your meals, shop from local farmers, and compost food waste to reduce your environmental footprint.
 
By incorporating these eco-friendly ideas into our Sankranti celebrations, you'll not only reduce your environmental impact but also promote a culture of sustainability and responsibility.
