solutions for air polution southeast asia
The countries in Southeast Asia have had a air polution problem for years. In the hot season, most of Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos are covered in smoke. That smoke is caused by forest fires, slash-and-burn land clearing and the burning of agricultural land after harvest. In the past, there were years when the cross-border haze was particularly serious, such as in 1972, 1997 and 2015.
Industrial-scale slash-and-burn practices to clear land for agricultural purposes are a major cause of the haze, particularly for palm oil and pulpwood production in the region. Burning land occurs as it is cheaper and faster compared to cutting and clearing using excavators or other machinery. Fires started for this purpose sometimes spread and create forest fires, worsening the problem. The high concentration of peat in soil contributes to the haze's density and high sulphur content.
Fires in Indonesia (particularly Sumatra, and Borneo), and to a lesser extent in Malaysia and Thailand, have been identified as sources.
In this video I propose 8 solutions that can put an end to this disease-causing and economically crippling air pollution:
