We all members are celebrating Vinayaka chaturthi yearly once by chemicals it is all ok but it is very harmful to aquatic animals in water .
My plan is not to celebrate Vinayaka chaturthi.
We should celebrate it but not with chemicals. Celebrate with soil which is useful to nature and natural.
Throwing chemical Ganesh idols into water bodies kills aquatic animals by depleting oxygen, increasing water acidity, and releasing heavy metals like lead and mercury, which poison the ecosystem and damage marine life. Plaster of Paris (POP) idols consume oxygen, and the paints used to decorate them contain toxic substances, creating a harmful chemical concoction that pollutes the water for years.
How chemical Ganesh idols harm aquatic life:
Oxygen Depletion: Plaster of Paris (POP), a common material in Ganesh idols, dissolves slowly in water and releases chemicals that significantly reduce the dissolved oxygen levels essential for fish and other aquatic organisms to survive.
Heavy Metal Poisoning: The vibrant paints used to adorn the idols contain heavy metals such as mercury, lead, and cadmium. When these paints dissolve, they introduce these toxins into the water, poisoning the ecosystem and harming aquatic life.
Increased Acidity: The chemicals from POP and the paints can increase the acidity of the water, which is detrimental to the health of marine plants and animals.
Ecosystem Disruption: The combination of low oxygen, heavy metal contamination, and altered pH levels creates an unfavorable environment for marine life, leading to the suffocation and death of fish, turtles, and other creatures.
Long-Term Pollution: These chemical pollutants do not disappear quickly; they remain in the water bodies, potentially contaminating the water source for years and continuing to damage the ecosystem.
So...
We will make eco-friendly Lord ganesha and celebrate the Vinayaka chaturthi without any chemicals
