Haze in Central Kalimantan
Children enjoy playing without wearing any protection at the playground while the air is engulfed with thick haze from the forest fires at Sei Ahass village, Kapuas district in Central Kalimantan province on Borneo island, Indonesia.
These fires are a threat to the health of millions. Smoke from landscape fires kills an estimated 110,000 people every year across Southeast Asia, mostly as a result of heart and lung problems, and weakening newborn babies.

Forest Fires in Indonesia
Indonesia’s forest and peat fires are a man-made crisis, with devastating health impacts for Indonesia and its Southeast Asian neighbours as well as the global climate. Plantation companies continue their reckless expansion – clearing forests and draining wet, carbon-rich peatlands – that lays the foundations for these fires. The unwillingness of the Indonesian government to put concession maps in the public domain makes it harder to identify those responsible for the fires or the destructive practices that cause them.
