 Green Crackers : Say Yes To Diwali

Author : Kshitij Raghuwanshi

Diwali is round the corner and the kids want to celebrate it in the most pompous and grand manner. They want to burst as many crackers as they could . But their parents and government don't want them to burst crackers this Diwali. What!!! So this Diwali, no crackers for kids!!! No, my dear friends you can use green Crackers and enjoy the Diwali.

Crackers contains gunpowder and other combustible chemical which causes striking effects and when ignited, they explode producing light, heavy sound, and harmful gasses like sulphur dioxide and carbon dioxide. The high decibel sound causes noise pollution and gasses emitted by the crackers cause air pollution. To control both these pollutions, government places a bann over the sale of fire crackers.
To prevent pollution, there is a very good option of green Crackers which is developed by the Indian Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), includes flower pots, pencils, sparkles and chakkr. They do not contain any harmful chemicals and reduce air pollution. They are eco-friendly. In Green Crackers, the commonly used polluting chemicals like Aluminium, Berium, Pottasium nitrate and carbon have either been removed or sharply reduced by 15-30%. CSIR tested the efficacy of crackers known as Bijli Crackers. They have eliminated the use of ash as defficants. They have developed potential sound emitting functional prototypes, they do not emitt sulphur dioxide and have been named as Safe Water Releaser (SWAS), Safe Thermite Cracker (STAR) and Safe Minimal Aluminium (SAFAL). The perticulate matter will be reduced by 30-35% in SWAS and 35-40% in STAR and SAFAL. They have a unique property of releasing water vapour and air as a dust suppressant and diluents for gaseous emissions.

Now, we have understood that green Crackers are those which reduce emission and decibel levels. They are available with a unique logo on the box so that we can find them easily in the cracker shops. So friends, let's go for Green Crackers and enjoy a safe and sound Diwali this year. Wish you a very happy diwali :) .
