Lead is so interesting to see molded. Cant bring myself to have one because of lead leaching but I always respect the art. Maybe Ill get a copper roof when I win the lottery!
"Not very soluble" isnt very scientific... The EPA considers waste to be HAZARDOUS if it contains lead at a concentration of 200ppm. Due to galvinic corrosion from rain water this can easily be reached if not properly maintained. It's not about drinking it, it's about not releasing toxic chemicals into the environment. Also stating that it occurs naturally I the environment is the most moronic thing you could have said. Many things occur naturally and are still toxic in high concentrations.

@@sixtysixstyx Been used by European roofers for centuries, no issues here. Best material, I bet there are many examples of lead older than the USA. Many older houses still have a lead supply pipe for their drinking water, probably have a layer of limescale on the inside, some people flush the pipe before drinking any in the morning.
@@bretty453lead is an amazing material. However there have been some studies correlating areas still using lead water pipes and areas with violent crimes due to lead increasing aggression
