Why has smoke started so early...?

[Chill27 12]

Thai people seem to love breathing smoke.

I literally cannot go outside at times in my girlfriend's village due to the amount of smoke from backyard fires, BBQ's etc.

It should be a public health/education issue, but no one seems to care.

My guess is that the smoke is caused by

 

Maybe move to CR, where the air is "clean"?

It can be worse ... and I think it WILL be worse, if no new rain is coming soon ... but until now, I have seen worse ! I am so surprised to see the bad number in Hua Hin / Cha Am where I was thinking renting a condo for 2 months ... number have been same or worse than CNX ...

Altho' not many places to go -

91% Of the world’s population live in places where air quality exceeds WHO guideline limits.

I can laugh at your  question. Maybe you want  to go into many villages and ask old men or ladys why they  think that? Many are wiser than Monks.

Is that a false memory...?

 

 

Your memory is wrong. I can only talk about Chiang Rai, I don't spend much time in CM, but the air has been unbreathable for 6 months of the year for as long as I can remember (been here 20 years). It easy to verify this by checking records, the air is only 'truly' clean May to October.
