Statikk, fireworks contain heavy metals and many toxins. When they combust, the chemicals are released into the atmosphere. There's also the light pollution and noise pollution, as well as more direct risks to people and animals and vegetation and housing.

But all things in moderation. I love a firework display as much as the next person, but come mid-October, it's endless disturbance and filth for several weeks. A few organised public events would be a wonderful compromise.
