FEDERAL PEOPLE'S INITIATIVE
FOR A RESTRICTION ON FIREWORKS
HUNDHOCH2 is deeply committed to the environment and the well-being of people, dogs, and wild and farm animals.
That's why HUNDHOCH2 supports the
Federal initiative for a restriction of fireworks.
Many dogs, wild animals, and farm animals suffer greatly from loud fireworks . Human enjoyment should not lead to animals dying from stress or losing their unborn young.
Fireworks also affect uninvolved persons or people with trauma as well as small children and damage the environment through the emission of CO2 and fine dust as well as through waste on meadows and in lakes and rivers .
Anyone who shares HUNDHOCH2's opinion is welcome to visit the initiative's website and contribute to its success.
Every single animal that suffers from fireworks is one too many!
