Haze Haze Haze!

Last night, the PSI level peaked at 153. These levels are considered disastrous for health and affects us all. In recent days the haze has been life-threatening due to the open burning by farmers in Indonesia. Opening burning is the fastest way to clear crops and pave way for new ones. In my own opinion, I feel that the farmers are not the only ones to blame, but everyone plays a part in this. Human consumption and over-demand for these crops encourage these farmers to burn in order to meet the supply for the demand. And individuals are quick to criticize for this phenomenon when the haze reaches neighboring countries. Food for thought.
