You're right, I didn't notice you were a different person.

Everything you mentioned has widespread environmental impact, particularly if people/corporations use those materials in bad faith.

There's no greater environmental impact if a person chooses to insulate their own house with asbestos. My point still stands; draw me a clear distinction why a store can sell an individual person tobacco but not asbestos despite the fact that we know both cause long term lung damage.
