Are we shocked? Nationwide alert issued after asbestos is detected in Chinese-made wind turbines across the country
An urgent safety alert has been issued at wind farms across Australia after asbestos was discovered in Chinese-made wind turbines.
The deadly material was first found in brake pads used in wind turbine tower lifts at the Goldwind Cattle Hill wind farm in central Tasmania.
The asbestos is in brake pads used in wind turbine tower elevators. The supplier in question has provided these brake pads to wind farms all over the country of Australia, so people think the problem is not limited to one state.
This is the MGUY Australia video Health SHOCK: ASBESTOS found in Chinese wind turbines
Well, this is unfortunately what happens when governments drunk on net zero Kool-Aid rush headlong into a disastrous energy transition, not knowing the first thing about energy. Idiots like Chris Bowen have no scientific understanding and have spent their entire careers as Labor Party staffers and couldn't run a sweet shop in the real world. But suddenly, they're in charge of billions of dollars of government money pumped at the supposed climate crisis.
The video is about 5 minutes long.
One interesting thing is that Australia only outlawed asbestos in 2003, where the US did it something in the late 1970s
'... deadly material ...'

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral. It is found even in outcroppings, i.e. exposed to the atmposphere. It poses no danger until and unless certain manmade process are done to it plus one more step.
That step is inhalation. Many things become dangerous when breathed in. The lint screen on your dryer poses a much more significant hazard to one's health than does asbestos.
Didja know removal of asbestos requires specialized certification?
Unless you are the owner.
Unless it is less than a certain number square feet (usually in the three digit range) per occurrence*.
Meaning you can do some today and the rest next Saturday. Thereby exceeding that limitation perfectly lawfully.
