Original toot date: 24 January, 2023

Hi everyone. I started a #PETITION to end the use of FIREWORKS in #Brimbank. I have been in communication with council but it seems they are no longer responding...though the petition is already gaining support.

Whilst #fireworks may be pretty & enjoyed by some, they have negative impacts on people with #sensory conditions & #PTSD, our #environment & on both our companion animals & wildlife.
People can leave the area when given notice, however, there is usually insufficient notice provided. #Council will also advise we take counter measures for our companion #animals (which in most cases do not work), but we can do nothing to quash the harm that befalls our #wildlife as a consequence of their use, including their DEATH!

Can I please ask you all to SIGN & SHARE the PETITION with family & friends? The louder our voice, the better chance we have getting action on this issue - & yes it is an issue for as long as it has negative impacts.

I'm not calling for a total #ban - there are alternatives that can be used much more safely (& sustainably); such as drones & laser shows, & I actively encourage the transition.
It would be wonderful if we could end the harm coming to animals & #people in this area, who are traumatised ALL throughout December & again in January.

You do not need to be a Brimbank resident to support this petition!
Thank you for your support.
