An award-winning fireworks firm says it is working to make the industry more sustainable.

BBC NewsSkyburst, based in Bedminster, Bristol, has been running for 40 years. They organise specialist displays from Land's End to the Shetland Islands.Company director Alan Christie said: "It's quite a serious thing that the industry's decided to look into and improve."

He said: "It is a concern. But if you've got 12,000 people coming to a display from a local area, that's 12,000 people that aren't letting off fireworks in their garden throughout the whole evening."I think that's a very good way of helping to protect animals and reduce noise impact on the area." "My biggest concern about fireworks is the huge distress caused to animals, domestic and wild, in urban and rural locations," he said.

"Some so much so that many injure or even kill themselves. Given fireworks cause animal cruelty on a grand scale I would urge people to think long and hard about releasing their own firework or attending displays.
