Well, hurricanes and tornadoes and floods DO grind materials into dust, which can then turn aerosol.

So maybe we just, ya know, don't use it in construction at all.

Show my a neighbourhood pulverized into fine dust by any of the above -- even the concrete. The physics doesn't make any sense. The closest thing we have to this is wartime bombing, and then asbestos is likely your least worry. Anyway, you're entrenched.
