What the series is
Two publication lines run under Landscape 360, on different clocks and for different purposes.
The Outlook appears twice a year. It takes the half-year as a whole and asks what changed in the conditions the Group works under — energy prices and supply, the climate signal, the state of the carbon market, the fiscal position — and what those changes imply for the next six months. Each edition is dated by half-year and numbered accordingly.
The Occasional Fact Sheets appear when an event warrants them. They are short, tightly scoped, and built on a named dataset, so a reader can check the figures rather than take them on trust. The 2026 fire season accounts for the current run.
Both are published without charge, and both state their data sources and assumptions in the document.
Fire in the Protected Areas
Indonesia's conservation estate in the 2026 season — seven points in every hundred land inside it, and ten sites carry most of them.
Between 13 August and 5 September 2026, satellites recorded 31,161 high-confidence hotspots across Indonesia, an average of 1,298 a day in 36 provinces. Of those, 2,067 fell inside a protected area, reaching 185 sites out of 881. The season escalated sharply in the second half of the window, rising 48 percent and peaking at 3,356 points on 29 August.
The concentration is the finding. Ten protected sites carry 70.4 percent of everything recorded inside the estate and twenty-five carry 89 percent. Legal strength tracks none of it: IUCN category Ia, the strictest class, holds 7,729 points across 145 sites. Protection on paper and protection on the ground are separate things, and targeting the ten sites would reach most of the problem.

The daily read sits alongside the dated series
Where the Outlook takes six months and a fact sheet takes one event, the Daily Monitor screens the day's coverage and carries three highlights.
