Crackers Free Safe and Environment Friendly Diwali

Diwali is celebrated in all parts of India and abroad. It is celebrated by the Hindu community as the day on which Bhagwan Shri Ram returned to his home town Ayodhya after 14 years of exile (Vanvaas), at the same time Diwali is celebrated by Jains as the day of nirvana of 24th Tirthankar Bhagwan Mahavir. For whatever reason Diwali is celebrated, it reminds of great personality like Shri Ram or Bhagwan Mahavir who were extremely kind to every creature in this universe. But today diwali has become a festival of fire crackers that creates intolerable noise pollution, air pollution and kills uncountable insects and animals. All this in the name of Diwali, Shri Ram and Bhagwan Mahavir. Are we really celebrating Diwali, are we really acknowledging the greatness of Shri Ram and Bhagwan Mahavir by creating pollution and killing animals. The answer is NO! The pollution that the fire crackers generate is tremendously harmful to elderly and young children as it creates breathing problems and harms the environment. So why waste your money on fire crackers? Come lets celebrate a Fire Cracker free Diwali this year and make the world a better place. Come lets acknowledge the greatness of Maryada Purushottam Shri Ram and Bhagwan Mahavir in a clean and noise free diwali. Lets sign the petition below and pledge to make this Diwali a Fire Cracker Free Diwali. Happy Diwali!

Pledge to celebrate a cracker-free Diwali and let others follow you

How do fire crackers affect the environment? How do fire crackers affect the health? What are the factors responsible for pollution during diwali?
Fireworks cause extensive air pollution in a short amount of time, leaving metal particles, dangerous toxins, harmful chemicals and smoke in the air for hours and days. Some of the toxins never fully decompose or disintegrate, but rather hang around in the environment, poisoning all they come into contact with. Increase in the sound levels can lead to restlessness, temporary or permanent hearing loss, high blood pressure, and sleep disturbance. Fireworks can also cause respiratory problems such as: chronic or allergic bronchitis, bronchial asthma, sinusitis, rhinitis, pneumonia and laryngitis. According to World of Chemicals, fire crackers release polutants such as sulphur dioxide, lead, magnesium and nitrate that cause various respiratory ailments. As diwali falls during winter, gases released from firecrackers get trapped in mist, thereby increasing the effects of pollution.
