Hi y’all! I am here with a new blog (after a really long time)! I really got caught up in school work and whatever but here I am again! Anyways, today’s blog topic is an ‘after-effect’ of what happens after you enjoy your “festivities” by bursting crackers. Like I mentioned in a previous blog of mine, Diwali is about spending time with your family and not bursting crackers. But those of you choosing to burst crackers, here is how you are contributing:
First thing first, firecrackers pollute, and like a lot. After launching these, they release particles of dust, zinc, copper, sulphur, carbon and many such pollutants. These pollutants not only harm the quality of air, but also the health of the organisms inhaling this air. Ok, so for all of you animal lovers out there. These firecrackers pose a great danger to animals in a close and far away proximity due to the dust particles in the air that these animals inhale. They also affect the animals when these animals ingest or get too close to the litter that is left after all the festivals by causing severe burning in the eyes and even death. Also the sound is really bothersome for the animals. Lastly, producing the oxygen needed for these fireworks to explode, many fireworks are made up of chemicals called perchlorates. Perchlorates dissolve in water, polluting rivers, lakes, the biodiversity living in these water bodies and drinking water. That’s it from me and I hope those reading this blog will stop or at the very least reduce the usage of fireworks! Thanks for giving me time and reading this blog post. Be Safe and Have a Good One and I am out! Sorry if any mistakes have occurred or I sound rude. 😉 #FireworksAreHorrible #SayNoToFireworks #BeCoolDon’tBurstFireworks Sources:https://lucknow.apollohospitals.com/how-crackers-affect-our-health.html, https://www.worldanimalprotection.org.in/blogs/fireworks-distressful-celebration, https://www.sciencefocus.com/planet-earth/are-fireworks-bad-for-the-environment/
