Option 2
This article doesn't seem to need too many edits, it is very well written with a good amount of information and the writers have a neutral tone. It also is pretty well cited with a citation every few sentences and has 49 citations for the whole page, so the information is gathered from a variety of sources. The sources also are from reputable sources, mainly well-established news sources and academic journals that review pre-existing studies. I would say the two big gaps are not talking enough about the adverse health effects of palm oil production and the 2016 Southeast Asian haze. I will be working on this page and will be adding a section dedicated to the human health impact of palm oil production. In this section, I will mention the 2016 Southeast Asian haze as it had a large impact on air quality and caused adverse health effects for many indonesians.
 * Article 2: Palm oil production in Indonesia

Option 3
Article 3: Climate change in Indonesia
 * This article is well written but relatively short. I think there can be a lot of expansion on the different causes and effects of climate change, like effects of extreme weather, a rise in sea-level, food security threat, intense rainfall, and decrease in biodiversity.
