Environmental Cancer Risk


There is a body of evidence linking general environmental exposures to cancer. A report was released today by the President’s Cancer Panel which finds that the true burden of environmentally induced cancer is underestimated. The Panel’s report, “Reducing Environmental Cancer Risk: What We Can Do Now,” concludes that while environmental exposure is not a new front on the war on cancer, the harm from this group of carcinogens has not been addressed adequately by the National Cancer Program.
