There is evidence the #PalisadeFire ravaging LA is a re-ignition of a New Years fire caused by fireworks.
What may be the most damaging natural disaster in US history (measured in inflation-adjusted dollars, as if that's a true measure of damage) was likely caused by our desire to scare dogs with colorful sky-bombs.
It's long-past time we find more sustainable ways to celebrate than explosions that contribute to, and increase damage in, our ever-warming world.

In response to this post@FantasticalEconomics so much pollution and destruction traced back to one stupid human, in a sea of stupid human decisions 😞
@enobacon
Yeah, it's pretty amazing (in a horrifying way) how much damage individual action can do. On the plus-side, that also means we have great ability, at individuals, to make meaningful change.
