Celebrate freedom without harming the planet. Every Independence Day can be plastic-free & planet-positive

Say goodbye to balloons, hello to paper streamers & flower garlands. Use tricolour fabric buntings that last year after year

Swap plastic cutlery with bamboo or steel.  Serve drinks in glass jars or clay cups for desi charm

Saffron: Carrot halwa or tandoori starters White: Coconut laddoos or dahi chaat  Green: Spinach kebabs or pesto pasta

Local musicians or acoustic sets.  DIY games like carrom, antakshari, or trivia

Have a compost bin ready for food scraps.  Separate waste into recyclables & compostables

Independence isn’t just for us  it’s for Earth too. Host your party, make memories, leave no waste behind
