A Safer New Year
Hello fellow Steemians! I hope everyone is doing well. I was greeted by a good news this morning while I was having my coffee. According to the news, anyone caught using firecrackers this coming New Year will be apprehended. I wasn't aware that our President signed Executive Order(EO) 28 regulating the use of firecrackers and other pyrotechnic devices to minimize the risk of injuries and casualties.

I am one those who abhor firecrackers because of its' loud noise which is really bad for the ears and smoke which contains toxic dust that can excoriate or hurt the lungs.
People should be informed of the damage it brings not only to humans and animals but to the environment as well. The government should educate the public more on the unfavorable effects of carbon emissions that come from the Firecrackers.

There are many ways to celebrate the New Year with a BANG. You can use Hornpipe (Torotot) Pots and Pans or other noisemaker that doesn't flush out harmful chemicals or you can just watch the fireworks display in your community

So, before the year ends, make sure everything is ready. Remind your loved ones that its best to celebrate it without hurting anyone. Wishing everyone a safe and happier New Year.

Happy New Year everyone! I suggest we use alternative way to make noise this coming new year for safety purposes.
Firecrackers are not safe especially for children it's dangerous I remember way back for the past Christmas season's in which almost all of the news is about the people who we're accidentally hit by firecrackers.
A lot of them wounded and some cut their fingers, hands and other parts of the body.
Take care of your body!
I agree with you. That's why the news made my day. I no longer need to hide in the bathroom just to avoid the noise. hehe
Happy New Year! Love your pics
Thank you sis. Happy New Year to you as well.
