Australia – In a disturbing revelation, the likely cause of recent asbestos dumping incidents across Sydney has been traced back to improper regulatory enforcement and illicit practices by some construction and demolition companies. This has raised significant public health concerns and highlighted the urgent need for stricter oversight and accountability.

Recent reports from Sydney and Melbourne have highlighted a concerning issue: the presence of bonded asbestos in mulch used in public spaces such as playgrounds and alongside highways. The discovery has triggered investigations by environmental and health authorities and raised questions about the safety of recycled garden products.
