Attribution is not causality, and attributability is not avoidability. Reduction of such pollution - measured by WHO as % of households claiming to rely primarily on solid fuels - will not necessarily result in lower rates of mortality or disease incidence. People die, and even if from the same diseases, other sources of air pollution - natural or anthropogenic - will be blamed as a "risk factor."<br><br>To me, this is academic conceit and deceit. There are no lifetime data on dose or response, nor do blames for the past can be projected for the future. <span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br>Nikhil</font></span><div><div class="h5"><br><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="m_1539886265458977557gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><font face="georgia, serif"> <br></font><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
