While it may seem obvious that clay idols are more eco-friendly than
plaster of Paris, a deeper understanding of the dangers of the use of

Gangumalla and Santosh Banpur, founders of city-based Hyderabad Goes
Green; Deepak Rao, a farmer and rain water harvesting expert; and Arun
Krishnamurthy, founder-president of Environmentalist Foundation of
India; give us an insight into the dangers posed by idols made with
plaster of Paris or materials other than clay.
