A new study is here. It says many cancer cases can be stopped. The World Health Organization (WHO) did the study. They looked at how we live and our world. The study says we need good plans to stop cancer.
The study looked at many countries. It found millions of cancer cases each year could be stopped. About 37% of cancers are from things we can avoid. These are smoking, bad food, and dirty air.
In Europe, almost 40% of cancers are from these things. This number is very big. It is important because getting sick is different for people. Some people find out they have cancer late. Others do not get good help.
The study looked at many things that can cause cancer. These are smoking, too much sun, and not moving. It also looked at sicknesses that cause cancer. This helps us know what to do.
Leaders are listening. They want to stop cancer better. They say stopping cancer is a big job.
Some cancers happen because of age or family. But most cancers do not. They happen from things we see every day. We can change these things. So, we can have better health. We must stop cancer now.
