Diwali is a festival of light, and light does not need to come with smoke and waste. Many families are choosing quieter, longer-lasting ways to celebrate. Here are some ideas.
Lamps, lights and rangoli first
The oldest Diwali decoration is the lamp itself. Many families now choose lamps, string lights and rangoli over firecrackers, which is kinder to the air, to pets and to the elderly.
Reusable diyas
Clay diyas are traditional and biodegradable, and there is nothing wrong with using them. A brass diya, however, lasts for decades, so you light the same lamp every year and each Diwali does not add new material. After the festival, wipe it, clean it and store it for the next one.
Gifts that last
A gift that is used for years has a smaller footprint than one that is discarded in a week. Brass idols, lamps and lotas are passed down in families, and a pocket temple or a deity frame can stay on a shelf indefinitely.
