The air quality in several northern and north-eastern provinces, including Chiang Mai, is deteriorating to a level which may pose a risk to people’s health, due to an increase in forest fires in Thailand and Myanmar.

 

Today (Wednesday), Suomi NPP satellite images, from Thailand’s Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISTDA), show there were 1,060 hot spots yesterday, 318 more than the previous day. 301 of them were detected in forest reserves, 254 in conserved forests, 248 in farming areas, 146 in land reform areas, 104 in local communities and 7 along highways.

 

110 hot spots were detected in Chiang Mai province alone and another 92 in Lampang province.
