happy 4th
Just a quick reminder for those of you who enjoy watching pretty explosives to celebrate your "independence"
your cheap ephemeral thrills have long-term side effects.
but...who cares, the colors are so pretty?
assholes
So...you Patriotic fools...
when your staring blankly or woo-ing at the display...
bored of thinking about the charges of blackpowder (containing carcinogenic sulfur-coal compounds) that send skyrockets airborne and blast them into patterns of glowing sparks, you can look at each individual display and
remember which toxic metals produced that range of dazzling colors.....
Strontium produces blazing reds,
copper compounds burn blue,
magnesium, titanium and aluminum create brilliant white sparks. Sodium chloride produces orange-yellow fire,
boric acid burns green,
potassium and rubidium compounds produce purples and
burning lithium glows red.
Glittering greens are produced by radioactive barium.
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY AMERIC A!
NONE OF THESE ARE UP TO DATE - B/C NO ONE REALLY THINKS ABOUT THIS ISSUE
Kaboom!
FIREWORKS
The chemicals and heavy metals used in fireworks also take their toll on the environment, sometimes contributing to water supply contamination and even acid rain. Their use also deposits physical litter on the ground and into water bodies for miles around.
kept quiet....Innovations in 04'
