At some point we are going to have to give up some things for the well-being of Mother Earth and humans to survive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Arquette may have been taking her cues from legacy media outlets, who have been reporting on particular concerns about the environmental impact of fireworks this year. On July 2, for example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/environment\/article\/the-hidden-toll-of-july-fourth-fireworks\">National Geographic<\/a> ran an extensive story on a study which argues that the Independence Day tradition \u201cdisproportionately [exposes]\u2026communities of color to air pollution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nat Geo reports:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"15.084507042254\">\n<p>\u201cThe authors also showed that fireworks smoke may be creating an additional\u2014albeit short term\u2014health risk for communities already&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lung.org\/clean-air\/outdoors\/who-is-at-risk\/disparities\">disproportionately burdened<\/a>&nbsp;by air pollution: Urban ones with higher rates of asthma, more older residents, and a greater percentage of children under 10. These areas also tended to have more Black and Hispanic residents than those with less Fourth of July air pollution.<\/p>\n<p>The high-risk communities identified in the study have \u201cperpetual exposure to hazardous environmental toxins,\u201d says&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jhsph.edu\/faculty\/directory\/profile\/3898\/aisha-s-dickerson\">Aisha Dickerson<\/a>, an environmental epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins University who wasn\u2019t involved with the paper. \u201cThis aggravates an&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/magazine\/article\/air-pollution-kills-millions-every-year-like-a-pandemic-in-slow-motion-feature\">already prevalent and persistent issue<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2021\/07\/01\/1012294364\/experts-recommend-leaving-the-fireworks-unlit-this-4th-of-july\">NPR<\/a> aired a similar story on July 1, arguing that climate change has made firework use untenable.<\/p>\n<p>Arquette may have tied her reasoning for jettisoning fireworks to environmentalism, but in the recent past, the 61-year-old left-wing activist has made it clear she has little use for patriotic celebrations in general.<\/p>\n<p>On June 29 she said she plans to kneel during the national anthem in perpetuity, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RoArquette\/status\/1409856988507361282?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1409856988507361282%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fentertainment%2Frosanna-arquette-kneel-national-anthem-american-flag-protest\">tweeting<\/a>: \u201cI don\u2019t know about you but if the flag and star spangled banner comes around me I kneel in solidarity and will for the rest of my life.\u201d And in 2019 she said she posted a picture of herself giving the peace sign alongside the caption, \u201cI\u2019ll never stand for the flag again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Arquette is known for blasting controversial takes to her more than 193,000 followers. As the Daily Wire <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/actress-rosanna-arquette-issues-vicious-tweet-jewish-conspiracy-behind-coronavirus\">reported<\/a>, last year, she implied that a Jewish conspiracy may be somehow responsible for the coronavirus, saying, \u201cI\u2019m still confused, so Israel has been working on a corona virus vaccine for a year already ?
