User: does the environment play a role in preventing major chronic illness such as respiratory diseases and cancers?

Note: Risk behaviours, such as tobacco use and physical inactivity, modify the result for better or worse. [ All this takes place in a social, cultural, political and economic environment that can aggravate the health of populations unless active measures are taken to make the environment a health-promoting one. ]

Note: I'm sorry that that wasn't a good answer. Please hold on while I contact an expert.

Weegy: Yes, the environment does play a role.For example, second hand smoke can play a role in cancer.
