==Coal== {{expand section|date=February 2019}} [[Coal dust]] is responsible for the [[respiratory disease]] known as [[pneumoconiosis]], including [[Black lung disease|coal worker's pneumoconiosis]] disease that occurs among [[History of coal miners|coal miners]]. The danger of coal dust resulted in [[environmental law]] regulating workplace air quality in some jurisdictions. In addition, if enough coal dust is dispersed within the air in a given area, in very rare circumstances, it can cause a [[dust explosion]]. These circumstances are typically within confined spaces. {{anchor|Dust control}}<!--ATTENTION: One or more redirects point to this section; do not modify anchor without updating redirects!-->
