Background
Fireworks are extremely dangerous, around 1,000 people a year get injured in the build-up to bonfire night, but not only that it can cause mass amounts of anxiety to people or pets not expecting fireworks to go off, which can lead to anxiety attacks, mental breakdowns or heart attacks. It's even worse for people who have either fled war zones or fought in wars. It is also extremely dangerous to wildlife and the environment.
