The results are striking. People are more likely to have a higher level of educational attainment if they have a higher level of exposure to air pollution from coal plants. This is the third finding that has not been replicated in similar studies of the same group. The results show that high levels of exposure may cause asthma, bronchitis, and inflammation. The researchers argue that the lack of a correlation between air pollution and a person's performance is what leads to their being considered "low risk."

This is the study that may finally raise the question: In the absence of high-level exposure, do people who live in the countryside and lack high-level exposure to air pollution have a higher risk of lung cancer?

In an article published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives, the researchers explain their finding that the risk of lung cancer from coal burning is lower than that from other sources.

The researchers found that the most common cause of lung cancer in urban residents is the burning of coal. A study of the Lung Cancer Study of Japan found that 80 percent of lung cancer cases were caused by cigarette smoking; it was also found that 40 percent of lung cancer cases were caused by other exposures.

The researchers also found that exposure to air pollution from coal also increases the risk of breast cancer in women. The researchers conclude:

The findings of this study offer the first evidence to date that the environmental impact of coal combustion, combined with the environmental health impact of air pollution, may be responsible for the substantial lung cancer mortality in rural Japan.
