The truth is, I have seen an article where they are now investigating the affects of fireworks on the environment.
Or maybe, fireworks are not made from fossil fuels, therefore they don't cause a net increase in atmospheric CO2 concentrations. Just because you see smoke doesn't mean you burned coal/oil.
If anything fireworks cause cooling, because they release fine particles which reflect sunlight and increase the reflectivity of clouds. Deliberately putting particles such as these into the atmosphere is even being seriously discussed as a way to reduce global warming.

They know it wouldn't do any good; nobody's going to give them up. And they don't release a large volume because it happens only once a year.
Well Actiually They know that no one is going to stop using fire works; I mean come on! Fireworks are really the only reason why people look forward to the fourth. Besides, It only happens once a year. We should only worry about things like that When pollution gets real tricky.
