"Firecrackers create health hazards"
News Year''s celebrations are often accompanied by firecrackers to ring in the new year, but lighting up the skies may be creating toxic effects.
Firecrackers consist mainly of fine toxic dusts that can easily enter the lungs and result in especially dangerous effects for people suffering from illnesses, as well as among healthy people.
Hazardous smoke created from the fireworks can lead to a number of adverse health effects, including heart disturbances, asthma attack, allergies and respiratory illnesses like bronchitis, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, laryngitis, pneumonia and other effects.
Dangers exist because firecrackers contain some very toxic metals that are dangerous to humans and to the environment. Metals like manganese, as well as cadmium, lead, zinc, sodium, magnesium and potassium can only exist within humans at minimal amounts before health effects are suffered, and excess of these also contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer.
