Why should the ban on fireworks be lifted?What is the Chinese New Year?

Pyrotechnics, of course. On Chinese New Year's Eve, whenever we hear the continuous sound of firecrackers and see the brilliant fireworks show, our hearts will always be comfortable and lazy, and our faces are full of excitement and happiness, which is the unique magic of fireworks, but the reality is that many places have deprived the people of the right to look up to fireworks.

Let's look at the picture above, the area where fireworks are prohibited in the provincial capital of the yellow city. In 2012, only ** and Guangdong developed, and by 2022, it has occupied most of China. Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Liaoning, Shandong, Henan, Shanxi and other provinces are prohibiting fireworks in the province. The stricter control of fireworks is like a compressed spring, and the harder it is pressed, the greater the people's emotions, indicating that there is a problem with the regulations.

First, he is not legitimate. A few days ago, the National People's Working Committee openly spoke out for the people, saying that there is a discrepancy between the provisions of the comprehensive ban on the sale of fireworks and firecrackers in some places and the provisions of the law, which is illegal. Call on all localities to make changes. Obviously, the national level supports the common people to set off fireworks, and it is the local government that does not support it. The National Atmospheric Prevention and Control Law and the regulations on the safety management of fireworks and firecrackers promulgated by the People's Republic of China clearly stipulate that only the production, sale and discharge of fireworks that do not meet quality standards are prohibited. People at or above the county level have the right to delineate time periods and areas for restrictions or prohibitions. The Haven't Law Says It Completely and Completely Bans Fireworks, but when local regulations conflict with the national law, rectification must be made. Restrictions are not permissions, prohibitions are not blocks, and a one-size-fits-all approach will not only cut off economic benefits, but also shatter people's trust.

Second, it doesn't make sense. A lot of places come in because it's for the environment. This reason seems to be fine, but if you think about it carefully, you are not convinced, I believe you have all seen it on TV, the news of the local law enforcement agencies focusing on the destruction of fireworks, and the mountains of fireworks and firecrackers detonate instantly, doesn't this operation pollute the environment?There are also many scenic spots that use fireworks to attract tourists, such as Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour, which fireworks almost every night, and Disney and major parks often have fireworks displaysBanning fireworks in the name of environmental protection does not make sense and is difficult to convince the public. When there is no nominal basis for the regulations, the act of setting off fireworks without permission is repeatedly prohibited, which weakens the authority of the regulations.

Third, it doesn't make sense. Although a total ban on fireworks can reduce fire accidents, it also stifles traditional cultural practices. This is equivalent to throwing out the bathwater with the child. Firecrackers have been set off for thousands of years. Firecrackers were first recorded in the Northern and Southern Dynasties period of Zongling's Jing Chu years of the first month of the 10th day of the first month of the sacrifice is the day of the three yuan, also the end of the month, the rooster crows, before the court firecrackers to avoid the mountain to create evil ghosts. The firecrackers mentioned here are the burning of bamboo in a fire, and the crackling sound of firecrackers is used to drive away ghosts. To the Song Dynasty appeared gunpowder firecrackers, that is, firecrackers, firecrackers were more powerful and louder, slowly replacing bamboo, but the name firecrackers are still used today. Therefore, fireworks themselves are a cultural symbol to expel ghosts and welcome the new.

Now on Chinese New Year's Eve, the streets are silent, without the slightest liveliness. Ten years from now, children may not even know what firecrackers are and what Nian beasts are. Setting off fireworks is a ritual for us to inherit traditional culture, and if there is no formal carrier, who is interested in understanding the culture behind it?Therefore, we can't ban it, bury our customs with our own hands, and lose the cultural position of the nationFor example, ordinary people are allowed to put through firecrackers with minimal harm, such as monkeys, small firecrackers, and falling firecrackers. If you are worried that it will not be safe to set off in the community, you can arrange a uniform display in an open square. Wouldn't this not only take care of public opinion, but also inherit customs and take into account safety?Of course, then again, there are now places that have recognized their mistakes. Under the strong pressure of the Legislative Affairs Commission, many embargo agencies have agreed to make changes as soon as possible.

For example, the new regulations in Changsha, Hunan Province allow fireworks to be set off for 14 days outside the prohibited area, 10 days in Zhuzhou and 5 days in Huaihua, and the prohibited area in Kunming is the five main urban fire prevention units, entertainment venues, supermarkets, auto trade markets and seagull gathering habitats, and other places can be released at will. Nansha District of Guangzhou City stipulates that the restricted fireworks can be placed on Chinese New Year's Eve and at the beginning of the first lunar month.

The first and second days of the first month, from the third day of the first month to the first month.

Ten. 5. Class C and Class D fireworks will be set off from 7 a.m. to 24 p.m. There are restrictions on prohibition and change, which is right, which is both reasonable and legal, and conforms to public opinion. The New Year is approaching, and it is expected that more cities will miss our busy people for a long time, enjoy the joy of the New Year, and the right to look up at the gorgeous fireworks is back.

Finally, I wish everyone a farewell to the old year, fireworks to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve, and a joyful celebration of the New Year.
