Asbestos is a dangerous carcinogenic building material, and inhaling or ingesting it may lead to various health problems, such as mesothelioma and asbestosis. While asbestos isn't banned in the U.S., it has very limited use today. However, many buildings constructed before the 1990s still have asbestos-containing materials (ACM), posing a danger to the public.
