        I understand the sentiment, but do these use real candles/flame?I live in SoCA where fires are raging. I can’t imagine doing this.

        It does, tho it does say they're in the desert so probably not as dangerous but they arent a safe product in my opinion

        Will kill birds and other animals with debris and pollution. What a shame they couldn’t find a better way.

        Let's find ways to honor people's memories w/out balloon & lantern releases. The litter left over harms animals & their habitats. Plant a 🌳.

        Are these the sky lanterns that drifted over to CA and started the Sonoma & Napa fires?

        Like Rochelle, I understand the sentiment, but they could have chosen something safer for the dry desert.

        Releasing uncontrolled fire anywhere out west seems incredibly irresponsible.
