Northern Thailand wildfires: Chiang Mai choked by toxic smoke as volunteers fight on frontlines
Northern Thailand is battling a wave of wildfires that have engulfed Chiang Mai in thick smoke, pushing pollution levels to some of the highest in the world.More than ten million people have reportedly suffered pollution-related illnesses this year, as fires—many caused by human activity—continue to burn across mountainous terrain.
With limited resources, volunteer firefighters, hill-tribe communities, and even a Buddhist monk are stepping in to protect forests and communities. Some are using drones and traditional knowledge to track hotspots, while others risk their lives on the ground.
Despite increased firefighting efforts, calls are growing for stronger national clean air laws, as activists warn the crisis will persist without urgent action.
