It's like leaded gas. Delicious!

Trump is so fucking based.

Is this news fake and >>>/lgbt/ ?
Please tell me it is...

>>105650446 (OP)
its just breathing in fine glass strands. what possible harm could it do?

Do you even MAGA?

Hello sar. I have the red pill. Being based like you.

>The epa is reconsidering a 2024 ban on chrysotile asbestos, the last form of asbestos used legally in the U.S.
So reconsidering a 1 year old ban that hasn't gone into effect yet is 'bringing back asbestos'?

>>105650446 (OP)
asbestos is really useful and shouldn't be banned outright.

>>105650582
is it fake and tranny?

>>105650446 (OP)
It legitimately does have a combination of physical properties that are difficult to find in other materials, or if they are found in other materials (e.g. carbon nanotubes) they would be equivalently harmful as asbestos.
It's just being fucking shelf-stable turbocancer is legitimately a problem that's a dealbreaker in almost all situations. Like, we do use neurotoxins as fuels in rockets and shit, but those at least have the decency of breaking down into less harmful compounds when exposed to oxygen or UV light.
Asbestos is the "radioactive waste" of not-radioactive shit, up there with "all that arsenic we spread over France and the low countries during WW1 that will just never go away."

>>105650446 (OP)
They're actually going to make asbestos great again ahahahhahha

>>105650645
It's pretty harmful anon, and there's been readily available alternatives for a long time. Denmark has had a full ban on asbestos since the 90's for example

>>105650642
Does it matter if it's fucking poison? Are you foaming at the mouth right now?

Concrete dust is as dangerous as asbestos
Let's ban concrete

>>105650717
Let's find a false dichotomy, because we're trying to poison the well.

MesotheliomaCHADS, we just can't stop winning.

More environmental toxins, please! The MAHA movement grows stronger. THANK YOU ALBINO ELVIS.

Yay, can't wait to breathe in ticking time bombs into our lungs again!

Did you know the 9/11 death toll is still rising even today because of how many people breathed in the asbestos (along with other materials) from the toxic dust cloud?

My family spent the better part of a year getting all the asbestos out of the house we bought. It was chrysotile asbestos. We reclad the place with VJ sheeting. Our country (Australia) has had asbestos completely banned from December 2003. I can't imagine building a new house and not knowing if the builder decided to cheap out.

We need to terraform western countries so our new and culturally enriching arrivals feel right at home!

Are the people pretending the uptick in crimes, especially violent crimes and murder is due to an additive in your car's fuel and not because of the nonstop influx of third world immigration and unchecked reprodcutive rates of the subhuman animal called basketball americans with us in the room right now?

completely nonsensical post. Are you going to huff leaded gasoline if a european tells you it's unhealthy?

Why is the sign in Chinese, Japanese and German?

>>105650855
Biden had dementia lol

>>105650855
Banning it was a EPA policy made under Biden, Congress isn't really involved unless they make a new law in response.

>>105650935
They make up the highest demographics of tourists. China and Japan are close geographically, and Germans have the work-life balance to travel.

>>105650855
Most of the outcry has been over controversial executive orders and executive orders repealing some of the executive orders from the Biden admin that were good/popular. There is a big, nasty bill working its way through Congress but it will likely be the only major legislation enacted during his presidency because of the filibuster and midterms.

You may be entitled to financial compensation.

>hey this firefighter who was working in early-mid september 2001 has mesothelioma, i wonder how that could happen. oh well!

This is big for medical and pharmaceutical companies. More revenue = better economy. This is big.

Is Asbestos actually a problem in practice? It seems to me that it cheaper now while being more expensive at least 50 years in the future when you want to tear it down, which seems like a good deal to me.

>>105651209
cuz the WTC is the only building in new york with asbestos right

>>105650905
all you need is a healthy body, drink milk raw daily, fry your fries in tallow and you'll live to 90
health science was made up by USAID and the EU as a form of economic terrorism
lead in gasoline increases efficiency, that's why they banned it so you need to buy an EV from a Soros-owned company and be chained to the grid (powered by leaded gasoline anyway)

We are so back.

>>105651252
Based, fuck smokers

Concrete is also a major carcinogen when are we gonna ban that? I love mud buildings

>>105651252
They should put this is all cigarettes unironically

>>105651272
Concrete is only an issue when cutting, which if you obey OSHA, you wouldn't have to worry about
Asbestos is an issue for life until removed
It's kind of amusing how you're actually shilling for cancer just so you can save a nickle in material since Asbestos was a poorfag tier material anyway. Jewish by any chance?

>>105651248
this mutt probably actually believes this. let that sink in.

Holy fuck. Even though I believe it I can’t believe it.

>>105651243
Most buildings with asbestos don't just collapse with zero abatement.

>>105651308
>Concrete is only an issue when cutting
wow literally the exact same situation as asbestos
>Asbestos was a poorfag tier material
asbestos is the best roofing material known to man, and the best insulation material known to man

>>105651336
right instead the mob dumps them into a waterway

So much spam across multiple boards when this is lifting the ban on a single application (brake pads) for a ban that only went into effect LAST YEAR
The internet is dead

>>105651372
I fucking love having carcinogens abraded away into the air

>>105651356
Wet asbestos doesn't cause mesothelioma. The whole argument is stupid because mesothelioma can take decades to present after exposure so it makes perfect sense that there would "still" be cases from 9/11 appearing today. We probably haven't even hit peak 9/11 lung problems yet.

>>105650870

>>105651403
Holy based eco friendly mafia taking care of the health of NYC residents. It was that easy all along

>>105650446 (OP)
just wear a mask when working with asbestos.
are you going to ban concrete too?

>>105651443
Yes, the mafia actually does care more about the health of NYC residents than Al-Qaeda.

>>105651459
>wear a mask
vaxbrain retard detected

So, apparently, this only affects eight U.S. facilities that used asbestos diaphragms in the chlor-alkali sector for the manufacture of chlorine and sodium hydroxide.
I did some digging to see if this particular application of asbestos is dangerous or not:
https://www.propublica.org/article/asbestos-poisoning-chemical-plant-niagara-falls
tl;dr: It's supposed to be safe in theory but it is not safe in practice.

>>105651461
do the dancing israelis care about the health of NYC residents or no

>>105651488
Certain NYC residents, yes.

>>105651477
Pretty much this was one of the applications I think should be pretty common and safe and cheap. Of course you can use membranes too.
Using it for construction probably shouldn't be allowed.
I wish people were allowed to use common sense instead of "total" bans of useful materials.
Same bullshit as hexavalent chromium bans because some soldier carrying sacks of the thing for 10 years got cancer. In lab uses it's perfectly fine though.
Only obvious dangerous use-cases should be "banned". In principle breathing very fine dust of many things can use cancer, doesn't mean you have to ban all matter!
Even dumber is the DCM (CH2Cl2) ban, it's basically harmless.

>Chrysotile or white asbestos is the most commonly encountered form of asbestos, accounting for approximately 95% of the asbestos in the United States and a similar proportion in other countries. It is a soft, fibrous silicate mineral in the serpentine subgroup of phyllosilicates; as such, it is distinct from other asbestiform minerals in the amphibole group. Its idealized chemical formula is Mg34. The material has physical properties which make it desirable for inclusion in building materials, but poses serious health risks when dispersed into air and inhaled.

Sociological mindviruses fucked millenials. Must I remind you the millenial generation is the generation that founded the social justice movement that's now known as "woke" or some other retarded buzzword name? Blaming sex (you don't get any) and access to information on the internet for everything is boomer shit. Delusional.

>>105651308
Does OSHA mandate wearing respirators or filtration masks?

>>105651864
cope is what you posted, anon. a long definition of what the material is. that has nothing to do with the fact that writing a sensational headline about how trump is reversing the ban on asbestos constitutes a lie.

>>105650659
>Asbestos is the "radioactive waste" of not-radioactive shit
Asbestos is a natural stone. You can throw it into a remote landfill and throw dirt on it and it's fine.
There were some scammers who recently promoted the idea that an asbestos landfill can be dangerous down the line, because of drinking water someone in a thousand years, who doesn't know that there was a landfill, might take from that area.
Funnily enough, there is not a single study about whether or not drinking asbestos is dangerous. The whole cancer shit comes from inhaling it, and it sticking around in your lungs.

I don't want to drink asbestos either, but i don't see why i should be concerned about it being thrown into a ditch and paved over.
It's nowhere as serious as actual hazardous or even radioactive waste.
