Think of Your Neighbors

Every summer, the streets of Los Angeles explode at night with the sights and sounds of fireworks. Thousands of residents set them off in their yards and the streets of their neighborhoods. But what is intended as celebration, often creates something far more dangerous - toxic air quality, noise pollution, and hundreds of injuries. And then there's the terror the explosions bring to children who can't sleep, veterans who are struggling with PTSD, and pets, so terrified they run from home and are lost. This is why all fireworks are illegal in Los Angeles. The public service announcement brings awareness of the dangers and unintended consequences of fireworks, and urges Los Angeleños to "Think of Your Neighbors."
