Long-term exposure to both #pollutants is linked to #asthma, #heart & #lung #disease, & premature #death. Even moderate exposure to PM2.5 can damage the lungs about as much as smoking.

“The stuff we need to get passed, the stuff that we need to protect ourselves…
seems like they always put it on the back burner.

Seems like we're just a number to them.

We just die. And they just put somebody else in our place.

#black #lung

After courting coal miners during his campaign,
Trump has left a trail of broken promises.

Many miners in Appalachia thought they would finally see a commitment to solving the issue of black lung.

Last year, on April 18, 2024, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) issued its final rule,
"Lowering Miners’ Exposure to Respirable Crystalline Silica and Improving Respiratory Protection",

which aimed to reduce miners’ exposure to an airborne compound that is a major cause of #black #lung,
and improve respiratory protection for all airborne hazards.

The law, which establishes a uniform permissible exposure limit and requirements for monitoring, had a compliance/enforcement date of April 14, 2025.

The date came and went, and miners are still waiting for the rule to come into effect.
