According to this study, GuraSOS warns in some cases that the number of breast cancer cases in women living 5 kilometers from urban waste incinerators can increase to 52%, an average of 25%, among women living 10 kilometers away from 15% to 28%.

GuraSOS has made an effort to transfer this reality to the CAV.
