Air Pollution in Cubatão, Brazil |
||||||
 |
||||||
 |
||||||
| A thick layer of fumes hovers over the city of Cubatão in São Paulo state, Brazil. Pollution in the air, water, and soil accounts for about 2 percent of all American cancer deaths, and may be responsible for a higher percentage of cancer deaths in countries with less stringent pollution control laws. Lung cancer rates tend to be higher in urban and industrial centers, where air pollution is a constant problem. | ||||||
