Many cities have joined the ranks of "forbidden release"

This year is the fourth year of controlling fireworks and firecrackers in Shanghai. This year, Shanghai will focus on strengthening the crackdown on illegal fireworks and firecrackers in non-forbidden areas, and at the same time, take drones to collect evidence in areas where illegal fireworks and firecrackers were concentrated in previous years.

Beijing will also continue to implement the "prohibition of alcohol". According to the regulations, there are no retail outlets for fireworks and firecrackers within the Fifth Ring Road (including the Fifth Ring Road) and the Beijing City Sub-center. Outside the Fifth Ring Road, fireworks and firecrackers retail outlets are not set up in the forbidden areas designated by each district to ensure the safety of the city center, the built-up area and the Beijing City Sub-center.

Binhai New Area, Heping District, Hedong District, Hexi District, Nankai District, Hebei District, Hongqiao District, Dongli District, Xiqing District, Jinnan District and Beichen District are prohibited from operating (including warehousing).

After the promulgation of the above-mentioned "Measures", five district governments of Ninghe District, Jizhou District, Baodi District, wuqing district District and Jinghai District successively issued notices prohibiting the discharge of fireworks and firecrackers within their respective administrative areas. This means that some parts of Tianjin will usher in the first Spring Festival without firecrackers.

In addition, this year, the forbidden area for fireworks and firecrackers in Nanjing has been further expanded, and all the sales in Jiangbei New District have been banned.

Xi 'an will also continue to abide by the Regulations on the Safety Management of Fireworks and Firecrackers in Xi 'an, and prohibit the sale and discharge of fireworks and firecrackers in the six districts of the city.

Buying fireworks in Beijing, Shanghai and other places requires real-name registration.

In addition to bans and restrictions, many places explicitly require that the purchase of fireworks and firecrackers must be registered with real names.

This year, Shanghai * * * set up nine fireworks sales points. According to the fire department, in order to strengthen control, this year, like last year, citizens must register their names, ID numbers, addresses and other related information when purchasing.

Beijing has set up 37 retail outlets for fireworks and firecrackers this year.

Encourage people to change their customs and advocate people to set off firecrackers less.

As more and more cities join the ranks of prohibiting and restricting the discharge of fireworks and firecrackers, and people's awareness of environmental protection continues to improve, the sales of traditional fireworks and firecrackers have dropped sharply.

Take Beijing as an example. By the end of June 65438+ 10, there were 40,000 boxes of fireworks and firecrackers in stock during the Spring Festival of 20 19, which was 46.7% lower than the 75,000 boxes in stock last year.

In addition, more and more cities actively advocate changing customs.

The Regulations of Shanghai Municipality on the Safety Management of Fireworks and Firecrackers mentioned that "it is encouraged to change customs and promote the use of safe and environmentally friendly alternative products such as electronic firecrackers and fireworks containers".

This year, many cities have also issued an appeal for less firecrackers.

For example, a few days ago, Luoyang Civilization Office and other departments jointly issued the "Proposal on Banning Fireworks and Firecrackers during the Spring Festival". It is mentioned that party member cadres at all levels should set an example, actively take the lead in not buying or setting off fireworks, and never become the makers of air and noise pollution. At the same time, guide and drive people around to actively respond to the initiative and create a good social atmosphere for civilized festivals.

The Qingdao Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, together with the Municipal Civilization Office, the Communist Youth League Committee and the Municipal Women's Federation, issued a proposal to the citizens, calling on them to consciously buy less, put less or not put fireworks and firecrackers.

With the joint efforts of the government and the people, environmental protection for the New Year is gradually becoming an accepted way of life.
