Holi with Natural Colours:
Workshops, lectures and programmes to teach people to make natural colours with easily available household materials are conducted. Emphasis is also made to avoid burning large holikas by cutting trees, instead people are encouraged to use dry twigs and leaves fallen on the ground.
Khelo Holi ecofriendly awareness campaign is conducted in February 2018. 20 workshops are conducted and 4000 students participated in the campaign.

Noise & Pollution free Diwali:
Bursting crackers during Diwali is most popular amongst children. Thus creating awareness amongst school children about the ill-effects of crackers mainly with respect to noise and air, is the purpose of PDM team. Students are also involved in actual noise monitoring using suitable systems.
Gudhipadva- New Year Celebration:
Last two years we are celebrating Gudhipadva(Hindu new year) by pollution free Sky lanterns instead of crackers. Everybody is now copying this new way of celebration.
