    That would be assuming things like "breathing air" or "existing under
    the sun" doesn't cause cancer.

    The rest of your point I've already made.

    As for whether or not plants cause cancer - maybe they do, but that
    wouldn't explain why it's a greater killer now than 200 years ago. For
    that you'd have to add in the social factors.

    Best,
