Background: The carcinogenicity of air pollution and its impact on the risk of lung cancer is well known; however, there are still knowledge gaps and mixed results for other sites of cancer.
Methods: The current study aimed to evaluate the associations between ambient air pollution [fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx)] and cancer incidence.
Background: There is limited evidence on the associations between residential greenness and cancer incidence in longitudinal studies.
Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the associations between weighted mean residential greenness exposure and cancer incidence.
Methods: This is a registry based retrospective cohort study of 977,644 participants.
Background: Industrial complex (IC) residence is associated with higher cancer incidence in adults and children. However, the effect on young adults and the residence duration are not well described. Since the beginning of the 20th century, the Haifa bay area (HBA) has a major IC area with petrochemical industry complex and many other industries.

Our objective was to evaluate the associations between cumulative residential greenness exposure and site-specific cancer incidence (lung, bladder, breast, prostate, and skin cancer) within a registry-based cohort study.
Methods: This study was based on 144,427 participants who lived in the Tel Aviv district during 1995-2015.
