When a country’s land has boundary, but not the air above the land, unfortunately


When a country’s land has boundary, but not the air above the land, unfortunately

************

(Haiku / Senyru) 

***********

slash and burn on land

smoke and haze in air above

neighbouring countries 😏

**********

slash and burn is cheap,

no labour to clear their lands

here, we cough, cough, cough! 😩

*********

how’s the difference

when a country owns its lands

not the air above😒

*********

children stay indoors

hazy smoke is in the air

to protect their lungs

    Is this the wildfire smoke from Indonesia? I saw an uncle in the Philippines post about the smoke coming into parts of that country too. Stay safe, Serena!

        I’m very sorry Serena. Very sad and scary when these things happen at this large scale. I hope it ends soon and returns to as normal as possible soon.

    Sounds like wild fire in neighboring Canada, crossing the border to the US. Normally we send smoke across the border too.
