Los Angeles residents are breathing bits of "cars, metal pipes, plastics." The health impacts could reverberate long after the fires are out.

    Maybe they’ll see an increase in 9/11 first responder style cancers and lung issues over the next few years.

      I think almost certainly. With the scale of the fire, I think a lot of people may see that increase.

          Thankfully it didn’t take a tv host to get it done like 20 years after the fact.

        Given how this is becoming a yearly tradition, I’d expect that rise is already in progress.

    So is traffic pollution, doesn’t seem to bother most people? Bother as in, give no fuks. Eg in Australia it kiils an estimated 11,000 a year. I can inagibe it being less then 100k on the USA.
