Green death is a solution used to test the resistance of metals and alloys to corrosion. It consists of a mixture of sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, iron(III) chloride and copper(II) chloride and its boiling point is at approximately 103 °C. Its typical chemical composition is given in the table hereafter: [1] [2] [3] [4]
The leading cause of avoidable deaths was ischaemic heart disease in males and lung cancer in females. Preventable causes of death are causes of death related to risk factors which could have been avoided. [1] The World Health Organization has traditionally classified death according to the primary type of disease or injury.
Critical green inclusions, also known as green neutrophilic inclusions and informally, death crystals or crystals of death, [1] [2] are amorphous blue-green cytoplasmic inclusions found in neutrophils and occasionally in monocytes. They appear brightly coloured and refractile when stained with Wright-Giemsa stain.
[7] [8] Common environmental factors that contribute to cancer death include exposure to different chemical and physical agents (tobacco use accounts for 25–30% of cancer deaths), environmental pollutants, diet and obesity (30–35%), infections (15–20%), and radiation (both ionizing and non-ionizing, up to 10%).

Global deaths from cancers attributable to risk factors in 2019 by sex and Socio-demographic Index. [130] Cancer DALYs attributable to 11 Level 2 risk factors globally in 2019. [130] Cancer prevention is defined as active measures to decrease cancer risk. [131] The vast majority of cancer cases are due to environmental risk factors.
