    I’m not sure who is downvoting this, but in case it’s for the poor choice of first picture - that’s not what the titular ‘haze’ is about.

    About 10% of Indonesia has burnt since the start of 2026, the peat fires are largely out of control but since they’re not choking Jakarta (the fires are mostly in Sumatra and Kalimantan, not Java), the government does little except arresting journalists trying to cover fires.
