On 11 November 2022 BBC News reported: Far removed from the world leaders making climate pledges at COP, are people like Ali Hussein Julood, a young leukaemia survivor living on an Iraqi oil field co-managed by BP. When the BBC discovered BP was not declaring the field's gas flaring, Ali helped us to reveal the truth about the poisonous air the local community has to breathe. ... We discovered through satellite data that Rumaila in Basra, southern Iraq, is the world's worst offender for gas flaring. Gas flaring is not only a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions, it is also known to emit benzene -- which heightens the risk of cancer, particularly childhood leukemia. Global Good News service views this news as the failure of modern health and business systems. Such 'flops' highlight the need for more intelligent, evolutionary, Natural Law based, life-supporting systems.

Dozens of people we spoke to living in five different communities near oil fields like Rumaila, told the same story -- that they had a close relative or a friend who was suffering from cancer, often leukaemia.
