Environmental Factors and Lung Cancer beyond Smoking

Abstract

Anthony Philip*

Lung cancer is one of the most prevalent and deadly cancers globally, accounting for a significant portion of cancer-related deaths each year. While smoking remains the primary risk factor for lung cancer, it is essential to recognize that several environmental factors play a crucial role in the development and progression of this disease. Understanding these factors is vital not only for prevention but also for addressing the growing incidence of lung cancer in non-smokers. Lung cancer is a formidable and often fatal disease that has long been associated with smoking. While cigarette smoking remains the leading cause of lung cancer, it's crucial to understand that this deadly disease can also affect non-smokers due to a range of factors, including genetics, environmental exposures and occupational hazards.
