Concepts of Thinking: Interrelationship, Geographic Perspective, Spatial Significance, and Patterns and Trends

Inquiry: Where did the fires start? What is where?
Why do these fires occur yearly? Why there?
How are these fires impacting local and global populations? Why care?
How might the occurrence of these fires be prevented? Why care?


Activity: Map out the location of the palm oil plantations. Answer What is where? Why there? why care? Add to the that map the destination locations of palm oil products. Answer What is where? Why there? Why care?
Can students come up with a potential solution to the yearly occurrence while taking into account the different stakeholders?
