Holi is a festival of colors, joy, and togetherness, but it often leads to water wastage, chemical pollution, and plastic waste. This year, letβs celebrate Holi the eco-friendly way while keeping the fun intact! πβ¨
Hello everyone ! Welcome to SasVibe.
1οΈβ£ Play with Natural Colors π¨
Say NO to chemical-based colors that harm your skin and the environment. Instead, use:
β
Homemade colors from turmeric, beetroot, and dried flowers
β
Organic colors available in the market
β
Flour-based colors that are biodegradable
2οΈβ£ Save Water β Play a Dry Holi! π¦π«
Instead of wasting liters of water, enjoy a dry Holi with organic powders and flower petals. If you do use water, keep it minimal and use buckets instead of hoses.
3οΈβ£ Ditch Plastic Balloons & Water Guns πβ
Plastic balloons create non-biodegradable waste and hurt animals. Instead:
π± Use biodegradable balloons (if available)
πΏ Play with colored rice flour or flower petals
π« Avoid using plastic pichkaris (water guns)
4οΈβ£ Wear Sustainable Clothes πβ»οΈ
Wear old, comfortable clothes that you donβt mind getting stained instead of buying new ones. This reduces textile waste and supports sustainable fashion!

Enjoy homemade Holi sweets like gujiya and malpua instead of store-bought packaged ones. Also, use banana leaves or biodegradable plates instead of plastic ones.
