But we also knew the dangers that firecrackers pose to users and the pollution they bring.

The Department of Health and local government units are vigilant in urging the public to avoid these explosives and turn instead to alternative light and noisemakers.

Like the vuvuzela is a 2-foot plastic horn popularized by football fans during the World Cup in South Africa.
