- MrBuddyCasino 3y agoRemoving "flame-retardants, plasticizers, paints, caulking compounds, sealants" from buildings seems overreach, you'd probably have to raze them. They didn't even do that for asbestos or lead paint.
- delfinom 3y agoYea but it wasn't just in buildings. They were for example, part of coolants used in transformers. When those fail they leak and contaminate.
- DiggyJohnson 3y agoSure, but the same argument applies.
