I first learned about this back in the 1970's, due to cleanup aboard ships.

Then in the 1980's - the clean up in housing.

But even today - people/companies are denying that Asbestos is harmful... all while "they have that cough"... much like tobacco folks.

Does this sound foreign to you? Then watch and learn...

@eri yes and that's why #Asbestos still has nieches like high-temperature ovens like in a steel foundry.

And those "spechal use-cases" are still legal because not only are there no alternatives to handle i.e. molten Tungsten, but also because these ain't "frivolous" but have proper casings and handling and not "consumer-facing"…

Never as a country has our sense of what home means been more at threat. I painted this figure wearing a cardboard box on his head to start a conversation with the public about what home means to them. As a country we are currently in an existential crisis over housing. Comments: What is home? Mural on the […]
