00:00:23.780 --> 00:00:26.820
Modern transport depends on fuel, on

2
00:00:30.080 --> 00:00:33.600
tyres, and on asbestos.

3
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:37.580
Asbestos provides the stopping power for
modern braking systems,

4
00:00:37.980 --> 00:00:40.260
the stopping power modern transport needs.

5
00:00:41.080 --> 00:00:44.460
In this, as in so many ways, asbestos
serves us well.

6
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:46.000
But it needs to be used carefully.

8
00:01:16.320 --> 00:01:18.900
Asbestos protects us from fire.

9
00:01:18.900 --> 00:01:24.660
When a fire gets out of control, asbestos
can stop it.

10
00:01:25.940 --> 00:01:28.260
And when buildings burn, asbestos

11
00:01:28.260 --> 00:01:32.540
insulation board can slow the spread of
flames, giving firefighters the extra time

12
00:01:32.540 --> 00:01:33.540
that can

13
00:01:32.880 --> 00:01:38.080
mean the difference between life and
death. In this, as in so many ways,
asbestos serves

14
00:01:38.080 --> 00:01:43.480
us well. But it needs to be used
carefully. For information about the

16
00:02:10.850 --> 00:02:14.250
What do these buildings have in common?
For one thing, a

17
00:02:14.250 --> 00:02:18.830
remarkable building material. It's light,
strong, durable, weather and corrosion

18
00:02:18.830 --> 00:02:22.270
resistant, versatile, and sometimes even
beautiful.

19
00:02:22.910 --> 00:02:24.510
It's not new, it's been around

20
00:02:24.510 --> 00:02:28.510
for over half a century. It's cement
reinforced with asbestos fibre.

21
00:02:28.850 --> 00:02:29.850
In this,

22
00:02:29.730 --> 00:02:34.670
as in so many ways, asbestos serves us
well. But it needs to be used carefully.
