Fourth, a decrease in firework discharge.

"Usually people set off firecrackers to bid farewell to the old year. However, the fireworks discharge has been decreasing annually. Left-over fireworks and firecrackers in 2012 accumulated to over 1,400 tons, 950 tons less than in 2011. On the one hand, the price of the fireworks and firecrackers is higher than before and it's dangerous to play with them.

On the other hand, the public awareness is rising." Gao said, "The decrease in the discharge of fireworks is a symbol of social progress. Setting off fireworks and firecrackers is not a good habit and should be corrected."
