New Year's Fireworks Blamed for Sharp Rise in Pollution
污染激增，新年烟花成为众矢之的
Several cities in Germany reported air pollution spikes immediately following their New Year's Eve firework celebrations. According to a national estimate in Germany, the fireworks contributed 4,000 tonnes of toxins (smoke and soot) into the atmosphere. In Munich, levels rose 26 times higher than the safe level recommended by the European Union. Environmentalists say that more restrictions of fireworks are required worldwide, especially during special events such as New Year's Eve, Guy Fawkes Night, and Diwali. The toxins from fireworks pollute waterways and contribute to hazardous smog in the atmosphere.
德国多个城市均有报道，空气污染在除夕之夜燃放烟花后大大加重。德国预测数据表明，烟花往大气中释放了4000吨有毒物质（烟灰）。慕尼黑的空气污染指数比欧盟建议的安全指数高出26倍。环保主义者认为世界各地应严格限制烟花燃放，尤其是在除夕、烟火节、排灯节这样的重大节日期间。烟花中的毒素会污染水源，并使空气中含有有害气体。
