Anything, everything.
This is a very advanved country, you know.
They have thousands of incineration plants...
People have a lot of breathing problems and die assiduously from cancer... but such fires no lo'hacen na'. :tired:

people like this better keep their windows rolled up on the carretera, lest they get behind a smoker

It could be plastic bags. Also perhaps you have an allergy or senistivity to something in the smoke that is causing these symptoms.
