Smoking remains the leading cause for lung cancer, but it’s not the only cause. A growing number of cases are being diagnosed among non-smokers. On the show, we explore how environmental and air pollution, especially the haze, are important risk factors that should not be neglected. Are we doing enough to protect people from these causes of lung cancer?
