Yes, it's true fireworks are bad for the environment, not to mention the health concerns. But the issue getting press is worse for the Cause than the fireworks themselves. Anti-environmentalists are always looking for "unreasonable sacrifices" they claim we tree huggers like to call for. Fireworks are such a beloved part of American fabric that if we start to expose their harmful side-effects and criticize them, people will get defensive and exasperated with green messages in general.
Fireworks happen (on a large scale) once a year, and I think it's safe to say we should be combating more significant polluters than trying to win an uphill battle like this one. Now seriously, stop being a tiresome wet blanket and have some fun.
do we actuly know who realy invented gunpowder for firework no because it unknow it could have been anyone
