The smoke from the annual sugar cane burning at the Ingenio San Antonio contains gases that are everything but healthy for those living around.
We interview the local headmaster of a school. And interestingly, he tells us that the burning of the cane is not the worst thing of living around the sugar cane fields.
The Ingenio San Antonio also continues to expand it's lands in order to provide Europe with Ethanol. It is owned by Central America's most powerful family and company, the Pellas Group.
