Cambodia Burning - Deforestation - Forest Fires - Climate Change

Aerial view of burning land in the Phnom Tnout Phnom Pok Wildlife Sanctuary, in Songkom Thmey District, Preah Vihear Province, northern Cambodia. During the dry season between January to March, hundreds of fires continually rage across the country. Land is burnt by farmers, loggers and local people looking to either capture wildlife or clear land for agriculture. Cambodia has one of the world's fastest rates of deforestation and it is estimated only 3% of primary forest is now left.
