New York Times climate fellow Delger Erdenesanaa wrote an article Tuesday, cautioning against the use of fireworks in Fourth of July celebrations.
Fox News Digital spoke with Larry Buchanan outside the New York Times building ahead of a planned rally by striking employees.published Tuesday voiced concerns over air pollution by homing in on one key Fourth of July tradition: Fireworks.
"Fireworks cause a spike in a form of air pollution called particulate matter, the same type of pollution that is elevated from wildfire smoke," Erdenesanaa wrote. The CDC cautioned, however, that the finer particles can get into the"deep part of your lungs" while others irritate your eyes, nose and throat., as noting that countries around the world see spikes in particulate matter levels around major holidays similar to how the U.S. sees a significant spike during and around Independence Day festivities.
Erdenesanaa specified, in short, that the holiday causes a temporary spike in particulate matter, but the experts cited in the piece are not out to cancel the practice, but instead raise awareness.
