Putting down the lanterns is extremely uneconomical, wasteful of resources and destroys the natural environment. It may even lead to forest fires, but the government has not only imposed restrictions on it, but has also promoted the daylight activities in Pingxi (A place of Northern Taiwan famous for lantern ) area. After the daylight is over, the rubbish all over the mountains and plains are local people to find ways to pick up; although the government budget to carry out recovery work, but think about it, right? Tourists and businessmen to buy day lantern, put pat finished leave (completely ignored), with the litter is no different, and then the government would also like to spend money to recover these rubbish destroyed, the money is not you and I pay Of the tax? Usually we litter will be fined, but the crown put the name of the lantern, littering not only will not be fined, the government also spend money to help you pick up the clean! Also, you may know, before the Lantern Festival, the local farmers must stay at home all night near to see the sky down to immediately see if there are flames, or really will cause a fire. Put the lights of the people, their own happiness in other people’s pain, but also undermine the natural environment, is simply a sin, those who write in the above desire to achieve only ghosts, God will give these people punishment.

放天燈是極度不環保、浪費資源、破壞自然環境的行為，甚至有可能引發森林火災，但政府不僅不加以限制，甚至還推波助瀾，大力宣傳平溪地區的天燈活動，實在是離譜到了極點。天燈放完之後，滿山遍野的垃圾，都是當地居民想辦法去撿拾；雖然政府編列預算來進行回收工作，可是仔細想想，這對嗎？遊客跟商人買天燈，放完拍拍屁股走人（完全射後不理），跟亂丟垃圾沒兩樣，然後政府還要花錢把這些垃圾撿回來銷毀，這些錢，不也是你我繳納的稅金嗎？平常我們亂丟垃圾會被罰錢，可是冠上放天燈的名義後，亂丟垃圾不僅不會被罰錢，政府還花錢幫你撿乾淨！還有，各位可知道，每逢元宵節前，當地農民必須整夜守在家園附近，看到有天燈落下就立刻前去檢視是否還有火苗，不然真的會引起火災。放天燈的人，把自己的快樂建築在別人的痛苦上，又破壞自然環境，根本就是造孽，那些寫在上面的願望會實現才有鬼，老天一定會給這些人懲罰的。

Sky lanterns can also be a fire hazard if they land while still lit, not to mention the litter. Though there are some manufacturers that make biodegradable frames to replace the wire used in them.
 
My first thought when seeing this scene was “They’ve got the Green/Nature message, but they’re being contradictory by doing something that is bad for animals and the environment.”
 
I’m not sure Gloriosa thought this camp activity through completely.

Hopefully, the holy candlelights will calm Twily’s deepened spirits

Derpy didn’t decorate hers with Muffins… missed joke opportunity there.

Careful, they could get tangled.

Indeed. They can also start forest fires.

Say, are those the wire and paper lantern things that can be fatal to animals if eaten?
