Green Diwali at CommonFloor

At CommonFloor, we believe it is our resposibility to contribute to the environment and society. We have been promoting green-living in Home, College/Schools and Offices.

This year, we are asking to celebrate eco-sensitive, green Diwali.

How to celebrate eco-sensitive diwali?

• Share food, sweets and clothes with the lesser privileged.
• Donate for relief operations in Karnataka.
• Instead of individual celebration prefer community celebration in a open ground.
• Instead of electric illumination for long hours go for traditional lightening of earthen lamps or diyas.
• Reduce the amount of things we use.
• Reuse the things we have in different forms until we have absolutely no use for them
• Recycle items that are no longer functional.
• Rethink the choices we make when deciding to buy something
• Refuse things that we do not need at all.
