Background
Loud fireworks cause distress to pets, farm animals, and wildlife, often leading to injury or panic. They also harm vulnerable people, including those with PTSD, sensory sensitivities, and anxiety. The unpredictability of fireworks outside traditional dates makes it hard to prepare. Silent fireworks offer a safer, beautiful alternative that protects wellbeing while preserving celebration.
