I encourage everybody to sign this. We are only months away from another round of choking misery ... It will soon be our turn, again.

Halt the haze health hazard

Southeast Asia's children are choking. The haze is a hazard to the health of a generation -- but finally, politicians are getting off their chairs. Let's make this the year we finally halt the haze.

To Indonesian President Joko Widodo, Prime Minister of Singapore Lee Hsien Loong, Prime Minister of Malaysia Najib Razak and ASEAN heads of government:

"As citizens concerned about the threat forest fires pose to people and planet, we call on you to take urgent action by redoubling recent efforts to hold those responsible for starting fires to account through better law-enforcement, government reform, and strong climate action. We urge you to come up with a comprehensive fire-prevention plan and support industry commitments to stop the haze. The health of a generation lies in your hands -- we count on you to act now"

"There are tens of thousands of Avaaz members in Southeast Asia who care about health and climate. If all of us demand clear action now, we can give political leaders in the region the support they need to crack down on the fire-starters, boost law-enforcement and provide a massive mandate to use the power of the law to make health win over haze.

Sign now and share the campaign!"
