 Use Natural Colours

Opt for organic or colours made from flowers, herbs and kitchen ingredients like turmeric, spinach and beetroot. These are safe for the skin and the environment.

 Save Water

Instead of using water excessively, consider playing with dry colours or using minimal water. If you do use water, collect it and reuse it for watering plants or cleaning.

Biodegradable Decorations

Use eco-friendly decorations such as flower garlands, natural dyes and compostable materials for rangoli designs, avoiding synthetic materials that harm the environment.

 Eco-Friendly Disposal

Dispose of used flowers, natural colours and other waste responsibly by composting or recycling them. Avoid throwing them in water bodies or open spaces. 

Mindful Consumption

Reduce waste by avoiding excessive buying of single-use plastics, disposable items and non-biodegradable products. Opt for sustainable alternatives or reuse items from previous years.

 Spread Awareness

Encourage others to celebrate an eco-friendly Holi by sharing tips, hosting sustainable events and educating them about the importance of protecting the environment during festivals.
