There seems to be a lot more complaints on local Facebook pages about the pollution, so at least the locals are aware of the problem. The problem is that those same people complaining will be buying the special mushrooms once they appear at the markets!
Someone else pointed this out a couple of months ago, so it's not a temporary glitch.
I, also, don't recall appointments for retirement requiring 1.5 hours.
Stop calling them wild fires. It's arson. Get the army in, boots on the ground & if you can't catch them setting the fires, catch them entering the forests & keep them out.
