>A University of Pittsburgh study funded by the National Cancer Institute found 2.5x higher cancer rates for coke workers in Allegheny County than other steelworkers. The increase in cancer mortality was primarily observed in non-white workers. Since different areas of the coking operation had substantially different racial makeup, the authors believed that specific environments in the plant were causing cancer.[15] They found 5 to 10x higher rates among the predominantly black workers at the top of ovens, where fumes were most concentrated. For people that worked at the top of the ovens for at least 15 years, 28% died of lung cancer.

fuck pittsburgh, I hope china bombs the kinzua dam and empties the entire allegheny reservoir onto this shitty polluted city and washes all the carcinogens towards ohio
>>524429758Wow, I'm so glad $20million was given to Science! to show that the people where the fumes and smoke were would get more lung problems.

>>524431922Well, I was more thinking of what it says about society that it's by necessity stratified in this way. We see it everywhere, you can't have bananas on the table without plantation workers being exposed to pesticides and going sterile and dying prematurely. Something is just wrong about humanity.>What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.
