Fourth of July light shows will include noticeably less bang this year as American cities scrap fireworks in favor of fluttering drones because of worries about safety and climate change.
Among those switching to flying machines with blinking lights instead of the traditional rockets’ red glares are Boulder, Colorado; San Diego, California; and Salt Lake City, Utah.
“The shift from traditional fireworks to drones was not an easy decision and based on a number of factors, including increased fire danger fueled by climate change,” the City of Boulder announced on its website. “While the show is going to be a bit different, it promises to be a fantastic show that aligns with our Sustainability, Equity and Resilience Framework.”
The La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club’s website said its show will feature a fleet of 100 drones flying approximately 350 feet above the shoreline starting at 8:45 p.m.
