Pollution can cause mutation

[Corzhens]

According to one medical article, the current pollution all over the world is causing a type of mutation in humans. One basis is the cancer of all kinds that is getting prevalent. There’s also diabetes which is now a national concern. It may be the food we eat or the air we breath. But I think the thing that is mutating is the virus that causes those diseases.

Unfortunately, there is quite a bit of backing for what she said. Just look it up. But really, what can we do about it?

Mutations occur all the time. The vast majority go unnoticed, while some are beneficial or make us unique. A few, of course, are harmful. I think the article you read would be useful, as it'd help to know what exactly the article was talking about. 😀

But nevertheless, pollution is causing great harm to human beings and other living organisms. If only, people would do more to curb it. 🙁
