It came up with a three point plan — to keep calm, understand, and educate in response to"public hate".
"If we can get a petition with hundreds of thousands of signatures, the councils are less likely to cancel our Christmas-NYE displays and we can abate the growing calls for banning."But even within the industry there is division over the correct approach.In response to the email, another operator fired back arguing"karmas a bitch".
Another fireworks operator, who agreed to be identified, has taken aim at the industry for wanting to do fireworks display after so many bushfires.
Just an early victim of climate change. There are going to be thousands more affected. Is it practical to compensate them all?
As if we don't have enough fireworks in the bush. It was entirely foreseeable. Cancel city slicking NYE fireworks. Good if the world wakes up CloverMoore cityofsydney
This NYE don't lock your dog in the laundry and ignore it hold it and see what terrors fireworks going off cause it. Can't believe the number of people who claim to be dog lovers who watch fireworks at NYE. Stop them. Imagine a Xmas lights display but on Sydney Harbour Bridge!
Having a foot stamping tantrum doesn't seem like the prudent way to manage the interests of the fireworks industry
