Examine the Alternatives to Fireworks
#Fireworks displays can go from dazzling to dangerous when they hit dry kindling, says Inside Climate News. Fireworks start thousands of accidental fires nationwide every year, including an estimated 18,500 on the #Fourth of July mostly from fireworks mishaps or campfires. With climate change making many locations hotter and drier, fireworks use is getting more risky. Many fire departments — especially in the hot, dry Western states — are trying to phase out fireworks and replace them with synchronized drone displays and other entertainments. Consider the alternatives when celebrating! #FireworksSafety
