Speaking of fireworks safety over the Independence Day holiday, James Duff with the City of Orinda, California tipped us off earlier this month to this outstanding little 2021 PSA from Lubbock, Texas. We are entertaining nominations for award-winning fireworks messaging, and there is a prize involved, so please nominate your “July 4th Hot PSA” from a fire agency, government agency, or NGO related to fireworks use and fire safety.
Write at least one sentence about who it is and where it is, add the link, and post it in the comments below.
Meanwhile, enjoy this little gem from Texas.
Here at NFPA we promote the idea of leaving fireworks to the professionals, encouraging people to attend a show rather than use consumer Fireworks. Here’s one video we’ve done with Dan Doofus, it’s in the theme of older cartoons, we actually have a series of Fire & Life Safety videos featuring Dan. https://youtu.be/PcFuIEwbITA
Good PSA. Also consider the potential harmful effect on veterans living in your area, i.e, PTSD .
