This is good news. Wood is more sustainable and can be more easily repaired and refinished anyway, the problem continues though is if it's replaced by other types of stone.
The root problem is obviously lack of protective equipment being used, but that's a universal workplace safety issue and that requires stricter laws.
Saw dust causes lung cancer, so we should definitely outlaw using wood.
Engineered woods like MDF use adhesives that contain formaldehyde which is a possible carcinogen. But people are dropping dead in their 30s from working with MDF (even if it is dangerous)
