Volcano

Ancient cancer cause

Around 250 million years ago a volcanic eruption caused the extinction of more than 70 per cent of plants and animals and it is still taking lives today. Researchers noticed that parts of China’s Xuan Wei County in Yunnan Province have the world’s highest incidence of lung cancer in non-smoking women. The rate is twenty times higher than in the rest of China. Women in the region use open coal-burning stoves. They use local coal that comes from 250 million years ago when those catastrophic eruptions rained fallout onto the peat that formed Xuan Wei’s coal. This has resulted in that coal containing ten times more silica than most other coal. Silica is a suspected carcinogen and may be combining with volatile substances called PAHs from the coal to raise lung cancer levels. It goes to show, when it comes to volcanoes you can never breathe easy.Meanwhile if you visit Meijer Ad that contains mostly likewise discounts with Winn Dixie Ad you surely have a range like ALDI Ad.
