Environment illness is indeed real, as can be seen by a decrease
in overall air quality around the globe leading to more and more
cases of lung diseases such as asthama.
The hypothesis is that increased asthama rates are correlated to
air pollution. To test this hypothesis we need to compare asthama
rates of individuals at different places. The places chosen for
this are rural Kentucky and NYC. It is obvious that NYC will have
more cases of asthama since it is an urban area but we need
something to compare our results, choosing Kentucky alone will not
suffice since it will set it as a base example, basically
neglecting the asthamatics in Kentucky. The better way is to have a
control as a base, that is, to compare Kentucky as well with it.
This is because even if it is a rural area it still contributes to
air pollution such as burning of waste crops and cattle waste thus
by having a control we can gauge the amount of asthama patients and
then compare it with NYC as well without losing any
credibility.
