My grandfather recently died of long term asbestos related disease/related condition. Let me tell you it is no joke. Seeing the sad evolution of his lung capacity diminishing throughout the years until they were at barely 30ish %... during his last few months... every breath became a struggle and everyday were filled with anxiety. Imagine being out of breath 24/7 without even moving and without ever feeling like you could not be out of breath... furthermore there is no cure and the condition just gets worst over time until the body eventually shuts down... RIP papi

All these political and industrialist CEO,,s should be arrested, placed in an enviorament and subjected to all these fibres that they have dismissed as harmless. Let's see what happens then. Cowards, Self Centerd, Greedy, let's see them play another tune on the worlds juke box.
@PhilipKing-j7k Says:
Did these CEO's and Doctors by saying nothing thinking only of monetary gain realise they have commited a crime against humanity.

Im 20. Growing up i would get to go into Claire’s and see so many things i wanted. All my friends had things like those little makeup phones but i was told we were too poor to buy those things for me so i just got to look. Being grown i have always been grateful for that kind of upbringing as hard as it was because it made me who i am today. But now i have another reason to be grateful for that, i didn’t have play makeup with asbestos in it as a child.

the towers fell ..because they couldn’t afford the asbestos removal and easier to collect insurance money for a terrorist attack you acquired insurance for 6 weeks before it happened
@kforest2745 Says:
Yes industry toasts to swinging their dicks everywhere Brake pads,toasters, ironing boards, hairdryers, surgical dressings, blankets, beer, toothpaste, fake snow. Don’t forget floor tiles. And any mechanics suffering from blistering on their hands that’ll be because of brake pads
@kforest2745 Says:
There it is that’s the word I was looking for not long ago actually regarding floor tiles), I knew it started with an ‘a.’ I was thinking arsenic at the time which I knew was poison so couldn’t be it but damn if words don’t slip from my mind sometimes
@superlativeb Says:
ive sucked in my fair share of brake dust, youre fine
@libbyscott9657 Says:

Fiber glass is safer, but still not safe. It's all about the corporate profits hiding truths. VOC's, Asbestos, Plastics (including Teflon), and all the other BS products we have in circulation thay are fine until they're not. Shareholder primacy, profiteering and greed, corporations lie and cover-up the truth until it's to big to ignore. Thanks capitalism. You make me sick!
@sandeshgc8332 Says:
Americans killing everyone until their profits are high up or all of them dead in every industry is wild , institutional dysfunction of a state even today

I'm from Sri Lanka and my country is sadly one of top importers of asbestos in the world. There was an attempt to ban asbestos before 2020 but later it was said that 80% of all the asbestos imported is used to make roofing sheets made from Chrysotile or white asbestos and cement which account for more than 53% of the country's roofing material use and because of the cost of other alternative roofing materials it didn't happen. I've seen with my own eyes where sometimes workers cut these sheets inappropriately with no protection and people around them mostly because of lack of knowledge. Most people doesn't even realise it's a problem.
@jamescecere7493 Says:
I worked at the Claire's corporate office in 2017. I was the Senior Import Compliance coordinator. We didn't KNOW it was happening, but we also did everything we could to deflect it.
@malekbm9838 Says:
so like after 100 year of knowing its killing people they still yet to ban it .... money worshipers killing people for just another dollar of profit
@james10739 Says:
This guy man is the asbestos in the room with us now
@germanlopez9448 Says:
I wonder if asbestos can be dumped out of Jets
@censoredviking Says:
Just wait untill these guys find out that when you breathe in carbon fibre dust it also never comes out and keep on cutting the lungs.

Throughout 1930s-1960s there was a coordinated effort by DuPont and others to ban all sorts of natural fiber materials, because they needed the market for their artificial fibers. Among most notable are Cannabis and Asbestos. Sure, Asbestos is dangerous, but so is glass fiber, and even carbon fiber, and let's not forget today's popular "mineral wool" used for isolation, especially in EU. The problem is not Asbestos itself, but inhaling small, needle-like fibers (of ANY material), which lodge themselves in the lungs and stay there. Modern buildings in EU nowadays contain polystyrene, mineral wool, resin floors, all those modern chemistry materials, which are super-easy to work with, and exposure is safe for one material, but mix them together, add a bit of air conditioning and microplastic exposure, and you live in an interesting environment compared to which asbestos exposure is a breeze. So, to conclude, sure, it would be a stupidity to expose yourself to asbestos fibers long-term. But the issue is so much overblown, with the scary chemical suits and all, just because they want to ban the cheap and natural material and they want to sell you more expensive materials, which are as much dangerous as asbestos itself. Big companies never cared for your health, only their profit.

So deaths of people after 9/11 were in fact an inside job
@farpasfritas Says:
Microplastic is the new Asbestos?
@NicholasA231 Says:
50:20 Chrysotile asbestos is hundreds of times less dangerous than the worst types. Banning it makes no sense if other types are ever used at all for anything.
@lnps-f8h Says:
There is no way to fix any of this. PFAs, Asbestos, Lead... and every other poison we keep making and using and dumping. Kind of depressing.

My house is made of it, my school is. They had to close the bathroom for a week for professionals to come in and remove it, than we judg had no ceiling for like 3 months
@thegrishplays3356 Says:
Basically the story is this: Find material that's good for stuff Use for quite some ti e Find out it's toxic Resistance in phasing out Eventually it gets phased out Replace asbestos with PFAS and that's what's happening right now.
@Cyph_is_online Says:
Why was the lady at the end trying to sugar coat the hazardous nature of asbestos??? Asbestos's like drought on crack and taking steroids at the same time.
@ayamtrying Says:
What about the other fireproof/insulation material such as rockwool or glasswool..
