MANIFEST SUSTAINABLE PARTIES

We're preparing for a time of celebration and getting together with friends and loved ones as Diwali and wedding season approach.

Birthdays, bridal showers, graduations, and anniversaries are examples of holiday celebrations and parties that are frequently fairly wasteful but don't have to be! 

Create a fun, colourful, and eco-friendly party.

Decorations- 

Get creative and construct your own party decorations rather than buying plastic items in bulk from the party supply store. Utilize used clothes or old sheets that you have collected over time or from packing material from packages. For themed parties, you can hang fabric from the porch ceiling, cut out and paint paper and cardboard to set the mood, or use it as a backdrop for photos. Consider making elaborate paper decorations like chandeliers made of streamers or huge pom-poms. Decorating with flowers and floral arrangements is ubiquitous, but it usually comes at a price to the environment.

Reusable serving pieces- 

You don't need all those plastic utensils, paper plates, and disposable cups, we assure you!

There are simple, inexpensive choices that can save waste and perhaps give your celebration a special, individual touch. Who doesn't enjoy drinking something straight from a pineapple or a coconut? Hollowed out fruit works well as a substitute for plastic cups, especially if you're hosting a Hawaiian-themed party or an outdoor summer party. They also add to the party atmosphere. Swap the Solo cups for classic glass jars. They are super durable and you can use them for years to come.

Make your invitations digital- 

Simply send out virtual invitations to everyone to host an environmentally friendly celebration.

You'll not only be saving some money but also cutting back on your consumption and trash production. There are benefits for everyone.

Make a plan for leftover food-

Food waste is real and often starts with not knowing how many guests will show up. Not having enough food to feed everyone is a guest's worst nightmare, so we often over-cook and over-prepare. The thing is, it's not that difficult to plan the portions. Think about how many adults there will be, how many children and solve it. If your guests end up not feeling very hungry, make a contingency plan to deal with the leftovers. For example, use them as lunch for the next few days or prepare small doggie bags that all guests can take home.

Don't forget - Noise is also pollution

This is one of the most overlooked issues when planning an eco-friendly party. Even if all your food is vegan and organic, and you recycle everything at your event, if you put on music well after midnight, your neighbors will suffer from noise pollution (and so will your guests!). And when I say "neighbors", I mean people and animals. 

Birds and wildlife are particularly sensitive to noise, and when it gets really late it can disrupt their circadian rhythm.

Remember to be polite!

Blow off the Balloons- 

If you’ve never thought of where balloons could end up after the party is over, take a look at the photo gallery at BalloonsBlow.org. One look at the birds, seals, sea turtles and other marine life who are strangled, tangled, or choked by balloon ribbon or bits of balloon and you won’t find those balls of latex (and their false biodegradable claims) so festive.

Grow awareness- 

Why not take advantage of the event to raise awareness of waste management and recycling around you? Tell people before the event that you want to have a sustainable and waste-free party. If you are planning a birthday party, you can ask your guests to bring eco-friendly gifts.

Similarly, you can advise them to prefer glass bottles to plastic bottles. You can even make it the theme of your party by creating a zero-waste event and inviting people to think about waste management and ways to avoid unnecessary waste. At the end of the party, remember to sort and recycle your waste. You can even ask your guests and children to participate in recycling to raise their awareness of waste management and the impact of our consumption choices.

We hope you find these tips helpful and look forward to your next green, zero-waste party!

If you have any other tips for hosting a sustainable event, please let us know, we'd love to hear from you.

Plan your next eco-friendly party and invite us too.

LIFE HACKS FOR BETTER FUTURE

What do we mean by the word “hack”? Urban dictionary defines it as “A clever or elegant technical accomplishment, especially one with a playful or prankish bent”. OK but how do we hack life for a better future?  Well,first let's see how we perceive a better future. For some individuals, a better future is getting hired by a top recruiter in his/her field of work, or a future in which one’s mode of transportation levels up in terms of luxury or comfort. So a better future is yours to define but however you perceive it, you can always count on undermentioned hacks. Learn them all and let us know which one of the following you will try first. 1. Keep your Budget Starting from the very basic and essential student life hack, and that is money. If one learns how to manage the money till the very end of the month, they will never go out. Make a list of your daily or monthly finances, let go of the stuff that costs a lot and is of no use. Save the money that goes on junk food; it will keep...

HOW THE YOUTH-LED NGO BHENT IS CREATING A MAJOR IMPACT WITHIN THE SOCIETY

The goverment is reponsible for managing many aspects of the country, thus the goverment body isn't capable of capturing the full human aspects of life.  That's why our Non Governmental Organisation (NGO) Bhent comes in place, to grant support and  monetary facilitates to the underprivileged children, youngsters and burdened classes of the society. Several schemes have been instituted to ensure that underprivileged children receive a solid educational base including 'Samagra Shiksha' and 'Strengthening for Providing Quality Education in Madrassas' (SPQEM). While the schemes are in place, and are excellent on paper, the results tell a different story. And, when it comes to quality education, there is an extreme shortage of qualified and dedicated teachers. Evidently, nothing extraordinary can be expected from students. In keeping with the report of the National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO), 32 million children aged up to thirteen years have not been to schoo...
