Diwali has been associated with firecrackers and fireworks so much that people blatantly ignore all environmental hazards associated with them and carelessly burst crackers in huge quantities. Firecrackers are one of leading causes behind worsening air and noise pollution during the festival. Similarly, the solid waste produced by the left parts of the crackers is hazardous and leads to various diseases. Pollution is one of the primary causes of diseases and deaths in the world. So it is very important to take care of the health of the environment so as to take care of your own health.

Firecrackers cause a lot of accidents every year where people end up injuring their hands or arms while bursting crackers. Especially younger children should be kept away from the range of firecrackers since it may cause extreme injuries to them.

Say Yes to a Pet-Friendly Diwali

We also want to aware people of the harm that these firecrackers cause to the speechless animals such as dogs. The noise of the firecrackers is very harsh to them as they have highly sensitive hearing power. Also the suspended particles of crackers in air cause a lot of health issues for them.
