through natural selection humans will develop lungs that will detoxify pollutants. What is some factual history that will support my answer against this?

Correlate between that and skin cancer due to ultraviolet exposure. We should be "evolving" our skin to protect us from the higher UV rays -- but:
"Unfortunately, skin cancer rates have been steadily increasing over the past several decades. "
Timing is the problem. Evolution happens at a much slower rate than destruction of the environment!

A heartless answer this will be, but. A rope and a Tree Screaming thier name. Hang them with the care of the mind they had. Or put them in a chamber that has Car Fumes, Burning Tires, Plastics, Copper, Coal.... See how they react before they Smuficate and Cringe while their body shrivles up and bubbles... lol Those are folks whom give 2 craps bout others. Folks like that are whats ruining the world. Heck, what about the other species??? It's not all about us. There is NO RESPONSE, just ACTIONS in my opinion. Sorry for the disgusting answer, but feelings are feelings, and I Love People! HA Just not those ones.

We can't genetically evolve fast enough to outpace the seriousness of air polution.
To answer your second question: The meteor that hit the Earth and killed off all the dinosaurs, obviously they didn't have enough time to develop anything to protect them.

Tell that slacker that it won't happen fast enough to stop your chest from hurting from all the crap in the air. Then cough in that person's face.
