The study in case of South Africa is looking at air pollution ,the towns in the study mostly host eskom coal powered stations and old mine dumps.

SA is due to coal power stations situated in the province of Mpumalanga. Johannesburg and pretoria is due to car pollution, but very minimal, not like china.

I think the list is legit TBH
