In a move the EPA deemed ‘historic,’ the agency has banned chrysotile asbestos, the only form of the cancer-causing mineral that the U.S. still imports and uses

Didn’t trump revert something that asbebstos could be used in construction again? Or did he try that and failed? Or did I just dream that?
I remember him going off on a rant that it’s a great insulator and really cheap and all that. Never mind all the cancer side effects.
Asbestos has been forbidden for a long time here ( around 2000 ). But you’ll still find it in a lot of the older houses here. When you sell you need an asbestos certificate indicating how much asbestos is still in the house. So while it’s been banned for use the past 20 years. I’m afraid it’s far from gone here :(
Good luck on getting rid of it US! ( sincerely)
Guess where there is a town named asbestos and where the production and use is perfectly legal. It’s Russia.
Oh I thought you meant Val-Del-Sources in Canada…
