        Everything is unnecessary. We could just off ourselves and there’d be no more pollution. The only reason our existence matter is the way we feel about it. Which is the same reason fireworks matter.

        That depends on a lot more factors for how dilute it gets. I didn’t know how likely it is for the air currents to dilute the aluminum exhaust over a large enough area before it rains. Maybe someone could do some analysis, but I don’t know how.

      You shoud do a calculation and show the expected change in global temperature from a fireworks show.

        That number is close to meaningless. Also don’t ask others to do large amounts of research in a lemmy comment, it won’t be accurate.
