The Green Ganesha Kolte-Patil initiative celebrates an eco-friendly Ganesh Chaturthi, honouring the birth of Lord Ganesha while protecting the environment. This festival of pomp and gaiety is celebrated across India by worshipping the elephant-headed deity, and Kolte-Patil encourages residents to embrace sustainable celebrations.
Sustainable living is a big thing that has been accepted widely across the globe because it makes our future greener and feasible for a perfect livelihood. All scriptures converge to one basic learning i.e. perfect living for the untainted glory of the universe created by nature. So it becomes our moral responsibility to abide by the positive aspects of nature and its resources.
To start with this sustainable living, we need to make the right choices of choosing an idol that is made of natural clay which makes our aquatic organisms to live happily in their aquatic homes even after immersing our traditional idols into it.
Green Ganesha Kolte-Patil Initiative
Why Green Ganeshas?
As going green is the new mantra, let’s opt for eco-friendly or biodegradable materials so that after immersions, the idols do not pollute water and the surroundings. Natural products used to make eco-friendly idols include unbaked clay, coconut, natural fibres, coir ropes, straw, paper, paint with natural colours and other biodegradable materials. The reason is festivals get all of us together and the intention to celebrate any festival should be to spread harmony amongst humans and the natural world. Unintentionally, we have been immersing idols made with Plaster of Paris and toxic chemicals which are insoluble in water, which leads to water pollution. Ironically, it doesn’t support the belief of the festival too. Visarjan or immersion is done so that Ganesha takes away the misfortune of the devotee but scientifically, if we correlate it to the festival, for anything to vanish it at least needs to be soluble. Our activities should always act as a positive catalyst to the society, our health, and natural resources and not to forget, our progenies whom we want to carry on the legacy of our rich culture.
