Parisara Ganapati

Parisara Ganapati Promoting eco-friendly Ganapati celebrations by use of unpainted clay Ganapati images and avoid pollution caused by immersion of non-clay, painted images.

• The attractive looking statues of Ganapati are colored using synthetic colors. These colors contain heavy metals like Lead, Nickel, Chromium, Manganese etc. One 2Kg statue of Lord Ganapati painted with lead based paints leaks 2gm or more of lead .
• Large statues of Lord Ganapati are made of Plaster of Paris which many times is contaminated by asbestos which leaks into the environment. Asbestos

is a known carcinogen.

• When these statues of Lord Ganapati are immeresed in water bodies, it contaminates the environment. This is very much against the spirit of celebrating Ganapati festival - like most other festivals - that is a celebration on nature and its gifts.

• The urgent need is to promote the use the traditional unpainted clay statues of Ganapati.
