“People have this idea that asbestos is all covered up and taken care of,” says Jane Willenbring, associate professor of geological sciences at Stanford University’s School of Earth, Energy & Environmental Sciences (Stanford Earth). “But this is still a lingering legacy pollutant and might be dribbling out pollution, little by little.”
