Filipinos love to celebrate New Year with firecrackers, but a new report is raising concerns that the country's fireworks industry is not sustainable.
The International Commission on Non-proliferation of Nuclear Weapons has warned that more than half of the world's firecrackers are sourced from a single source in China – a country that does not even have a national fireworks program.
"China is an undeveloped nation with a small industry," said Iain Couzin, a non-proliferation expert at the International Institute for Strategic Studies in London. "It's basically a market and nothing more than that."
In its report, the commission, which is part of the United Nations, noted that fireworks can only be produced locally for two months a year, from mid-December to mid-January.
According to the report, the country's fireworks industry exports nearly 80 percent of the world's firecrackers.
