The current one we are poisoning ourselves with is … disinformation and delusion

That too. But micro plastics have been found in almost every living thing so far. That’s a far greater danger.

We’ve also swept psychotropic drugs in the drinking water under the rug…

Can’t be that bad if you don’t even bother elaborating.

My bet is Hardi board will be the next one. Concrete dust causes silicosis. In industrial construction allowable concrete dust is basically zero. Residential construction people are sawing and grinding this concrete siding all the time.

Eh. You should be cutting that with a wet saw, like any other masonry product. The problem is that a lot of contractors are trying to go fast, since time is money, and they skip wetting stone and masonry products while cutting.

Yeah it’s not as bad as asbestos. I think it will be similar to lead paint. Bad for you, but not downright dangerous.

Hardi board
That’s a good one. I haven’t heard of that before. It even checks off the “fireproof” box

Here goes the microplastic generation

The geological record will be atomic fallout, and then microplastics on the next layer.

My testicles are really bouncy! How about yours? No? Get some micro plastics in your diet!
