This study by Greenpeace presents hots spots for 11-21 June mapped onto palm oil concession. Just palm oil concessions? According to WRI study, these account for 20% of hot spots. There are other types of concessions afire and about half of fires are outside of concession areas. Anyhow, in the coming weeks, the Haze Blame Game will unfold.
