        Exposure to POPs can cause birth defects, cancer, and damage to the nervous, human hormonal, reproductive, and immune systems. If exposure to POPs is high enough, it can also cause death.

        Swallowing large amounts of PCBs can cause coma and death.
        Long-term exposure to PCBs may have serious effects on the liver, immune system, endocrine system, reproductive system, and thyroid hormone levels, which in turn may affect normal growth and development. Exposure may damage the nervous system, causing headaches, numbness, weakness, and tingling in the arms and legs; it may also cause learning deficits and changes in activity.

        There is increasing concern about the potential for microplastics to harm human health and marine life as they move through the marine food web. Microplastics both absorb and leach out chemicals and harmful pollutants in the marine environment. The chemical ingredients of plastics or toxic chemicals absorbed by the plastics may accumulate over time and be persistent in the environment

        High concentrations of particulate matter, especially the fine particles of particulate matter, have been found to present a serious threat to human health if they accumulate in the respiratory system. The way particulate matter can affect your health depends on the size of the particles and the level of their concentration in the air. The fine particles of particulate matter can be inhaled deeply into the lungs, where they remain embedded for long periods of time, or can be absorbed into the bloodstream. Prolonged exposure to fine particulate matter can cause increased respiratory disease, decreased lung function, chronic bronchitis, and even premature death due to respiratory problems.

        Asbestos is listed as a human carcinogen in the Fourteenth Report on Carcinogens published by the National Toxicology Program because it has been shown to cause cancer of the respiratory tract, lungs, vocal cords, and ovaries. There is limited evidence that it causes cancer of the colorectum, throat, and stomach.
