Animal and environmental activists, police, trade, cities – the front against New Year’s Eve fireworks is getting wider, the fireworks frenzy parallel more and more dangerous.

Despite all these aspects, and especially despite the war and the financial crisis, the madness among the population seems unchecked – which can be felt and heard weeks before the turn of the year.
