Coal also emits other air pollution factors such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particulate matter… All this causes smog and soot which in turn cause asthma, cancers of all sorts, cardiovascular diseases… Which brings us to its health effects: coal is a mass murderer and is responsible for immense suffering.
