Opt for Sustainable Decorations
Instead of plastic lights or synthetic decor, choose natural, biodegradable materials like clay diyas or soy candles. If you enjoy creating rangoli, try making an organic version using eco-friendly materials like rice flour, fresh flower petals, or grains.

London’s Diwali markets are filled with artisanal crafts and handmade goods. Shopping from ethical, local vendors helps reduce your carbon footprint.
