Wang Anshi, a famous writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, once wrote in Yuan Ri:? The roar of firecrackers, the old year has passed; The warm spring breeze ushered in the New Year, and people happily drank the newly brewed Tu Su wine. ? This poem embodies the tradition of setting off fireworks and firecrackers on New Year's Eve in China since ancient times. In fact, not only in China, but also in many countries, fireworks and firecrackers will be set off on New Year's Eve to express their good wishes to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. But on the first day of the new year, a large number of dead birds appeared on the streets of Rome, which was shocking.

1. How did countless birds die on the streets of Rome?

On the first day of the new year, a large number of dead birds appeared on the main road near the railway station in Rome, Italy, and passers-by looked askance. The scene is very sad and shocking. According to the International Animal Protection Organization, the specific cause of the death of birds is unknown, but the representative of the organization said that there was a fireworks show near the dead birds the night before, which may cause the birds to be frightened and hit the windows, trees or high-voltage lines, leading to the death of birds in groups.

Second, it is suspected that setting off fireworks is the cause of bird death.

It is understood that there is indeed a fireworks show nearby on New Year's Eve. The fireworks display was set off in a forest, where a large number of birds lived. As the saying goes? A frightened bird? Visible birds are very timid. In fact, birds are very prone to have bad stress reactions because of being scared or stimulated. If faced with sudden loud noise, shock or strong light stimulation, birds will jump uneasily, explode hair on their heads, scream loudly, and die from severe impact everywhere, and some will die of heart disease because of excessive shock.

Third, the necessity of banning fireworks and firecrackers.

Many countries or cities in the world have banned the setting off of fireworks and firecrackers. Because setting off fireworks can only make people feel a kind of self-comfort psychologically, but it can't have a real impact on life, but the disadvantages are very obvious: it will not only disturb the ecological balance because of excessive fright, but also cause serious environmental pollution because of the waste gas and residue produced in the process of setting off fireworks, which is really a harmful thing. It is precisely because fireworks and firecrackers have been banned in recent years that my city has recovered its freshness and neatness in the new year. Therefore, it is a very important measure to protect the ecology to prohibit setting off fireworks and firecrackers.
