Summary

Description
English: Fires, marked in red, burning throughout Mexico, casting a smoky haze from the Pacific Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico. The widespread fires shown here are evidence of the extreme fire season 2011 turned out to be in Mexico. The widespread nature of the fires in this image suggests that people deliberately started many of them.
