fireworks suck. they disturb the environment, cause wildlife to become panicked, abandon their nests/young, flee into roadways, and die when they ingest or become entangled in the remnants of fireworks. the residues and chemicals left by them pollute the water and soil. not to mention the affect they have on people with ptsd, or those who have conditions that make them sensitive to air quality like asthma.
