It is true that in some rural areas, local regulations prohibit setting off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year. I wonder if others are in favor of or against this regulation? Personally, I strongly reject this one-size-fits-all approach. Setting off firecrackers in the countryside during the New Year is a traditional culture left by our ancestors. Should it be banned? I don't think so. The reasons are as follows:

Many people are in favor of banning firecrackers in rural areas because firecrackers will cause air pollution and easily lead to safety accidents, such as ZF in a certain area. The authoritative explanation for the ban is as follows:

Every Spring Festival, Lantern Festival and other major festivals, the air quality PM2.5 concentration and AQI index in Henan Province will rise sharply, and explosions will appear continuously, which will not only lead to the high average monthly PM2.5 concentration, but also bring Fireworks and firecrackers also have potential safety hazards when stored, transported and set off.

The reason why firecrackers are prohibited can't be said to be unreasonable. Firecrackers do have potential safety hazards, especially some unqualified products, which can easily injure people by accident. When firecrackers are really released, there will be a lot of thick smoke in the air, which will affect the air quality. The sound of firecrackers is also a kind of noise.

However, because firecrackers have these and those shortcomings, they should not be banned across the board. If air quality is affected, isn't industrial pollution more serious? Is the emission of automobile exhaust more serious than the pollution caused by setting off firecrackers? Traffic accidents happen everywhere every day. Should cars be banned to eliminate traffic safety hazards?

The answer is definitelyno. Industrialization and automobiles are closely related to people, and it is impossible for people to return to their primitive life. However, it is obviously unfair to ask the countryside to ban firecrackers across the board if it is only dispensable to set off firecrackers in the New Year.

in the folk culture, firecrackers sound to say goodbye to the old year and celebrate the new year, which is inseparable from the life of rural people. Setting off firecrackers in the New Year is not only a celebration, but also the expectation and yearning of farmers for a better life in the new year. After all, in traditional folk culture, firecrackers are set off in the New Year to drive away the "Year Beasts".

Although Nian beast is an unknown fierce beast belonging to superstition, in fact, people in rural areas now only regard negative things such as disappointment, disappointment and unhappiness as "Nian beast". Setting off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year is to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, and look forward to a new year and a better life. It is said that life should have a sense of ceremony, and setting off firecrackers in the New Year is one of the few sense of ceremony for farmers.

In addition, firecrackers are only set off on major festivals in rural areas. This kind of pollution comes and goes quickly, and compared with other kinds of pollution, firecrackers can be said to be neglected. It is necessary to ban firecrackers only on this few days of the year. Is it too strict and unreasonable for rural people?

Finally, if firecrackers have been banned in rural areas, will anyone remember the traditional folk culture of setting off firecrackers in the New Year after many years? Fortunately, not every rural area is forbidden to set off firecrackers, for example, Kunming has lifted the ban and fireworks and firecrackers are set off. This also shows that traditional folk culture and customs cannot be banned. Safety of setting off firecrackers in rural areas

It is true that firecrackers are dangerous to some extent. Unqualified firecrackers are a great threat to people's health, but I think this needs the guidance and supervision of the local government, rather than letting production, sales and discharge be stopped.

For example, manufacturers engaged in firecracker-related industries should set high-standard industry requirements, hold certificates for firecracker storage, transportation and sales, and strengthen supervision. Publicity and guidance to farmers, safety matters required for setting off firecrackers and fireworks, and so on. Conclusion:

The across-the-board ban on firecrackers in rural areas is overdone. Chinese New Year firecrackers are not bad habits, but the expectations of rural friends for a better life. If they are banned blindly, it will be too disrespectful to traditional folk culture.
