The increased use of asbestos in various industries in past decades has led to increases in environmental asbestos pollution. Incidental exposure to asbestos is inevitable, and has generated public concern. We performed the following study aimed at determining the level of environmental asbestos exposure in Honolulu, and our results indicate that the levels of environmental asbestos in Honolulu are the lowest in the nation.
