HELLO WORLD!!
Welcome to my blog everyone!!!
I am Meera Sanjiv
I am 12yrs old
I live in Tamil Nadu which is a state in India
I hope that we all have interesting conversations here!
I write about issues that matter to me,not matter just to me but also to the world - atleast it should matter to the world!
Today I will be writing about the Indian festival called Diwali
(festival of lights)
Diwali is a festival where people go and visit their relatives and friends..
Now Diwali has become a festival of sound and pollution-WHY?!
Because people burst fireworks and this leads to sound and air pollution.
- Young birds fall out of birds with sudden shock of the noise
- Stray animals and pets get so frightened
- People suffering from asthma, people who are sick won't be able to breathe.
- There is also lot of child labour in the firework industry
- kids working in places like this fall sick very easily and often...
Last year in Chennai the government said that after 10pm no fireworks were allowed but unfortunately our people did not follow the rules which is very wrong! Let's do better this time, people!
Not only on Diwali do they burst fireworks.. they also burst them on Christmas, on peoples birthdays and other religious celebrations...even after cricket and soccer matches- people use your brains and dont burst fireworks - Puhlease!!!
Today the good news is that Sainsburys supermarket in the UK has decided to ban the selling of fireworks so its not only India that I am talking about
I named my blog Rebel with a Cause because I am always arguing with my mother - one day mom said 'start arguing about important issues'
so here I am a blogging!( Here I am - camp rock*)
but mom, I won't stop arguing with you!!!!!!!!!!!
So don't let me down by bursting fireworks (dont let me down - chainsmokers*)
