Pollution linked to rising cancer rates in industrial nations
New York AP reports cancer deaths in developed countries climbing beyond aging and smoking explanations. Studies from the New York Academy of Sciences note about 2.3 million cancer deaths annually in industrialized nations, with lung cancer in nonsmokers rising due to possible exposure to secondhand smoke radon asbestos and air pollution. Researchers warn of increases in brain and blood cancers, including multiple myeloma and melanoma, and cite rising Bologna area cancer deaths in Italy as corroborating evidence.
