This appeal is related to the negative impact of fireworks on air quality, especially in winter, when temperature inversions significantly increase the level of pollutants. Additionally, the use of pyrotechnics leads to the generation of a large volume of solid waste and increases the likelihood of fires.
The ministry emphasizes that there are environmentally safe alternatives, such as light installations, LED illuminations, and drone shows, which can create a festive atmosphere without harming the environment.
In light of the above, the ministry recommends that authorized state bodies, city administrations, and local authorities ensure a complete ban on New Year fireworks this holiday season.
