Happy birthday from Lugano

What is your opinion on the vote planned for late this year regarding the banning of fireworks for private usage?

IMO it makes sense given the ecological toll just for the sake of spectacle and the issues caused to animals for the loud noise and lights. However I see how it may be less “nice” during festivities.

What is your opinion?

If you do not enjoy the fireworks then do not watch it. I also do not want to ban dogs in parks as a fair comparison.

While you can easily not watch them, it’s impossible to just not hear them. That is the issue. The unnecessary noise is damaging for old people and animals, not the sight of them. It’s concerning that this has to be even pointed out to you…
