[ELI5] How did we get rid of asbestos?

429 views

From my Gen Z understanding, asbestos was found out to be really toxic and damaging, but how did we purge it like we did lead in most products? I know with other hazardous waste we have to bury it for the foreseeable thousands of years, or it turns into a superfund site. What methods did we manly use to get rid of asbestos? I have also checked search, and search engines extensively to see similar queries but I have found none. So, I see this to be OC if that makes sense, or an original question.

Asbestos is far from gone. It’s still in old buildings and I think it’s still used in auto parts like brakes.
