Mesothelioma is a signature disease for asbestos exposure.  In other words, exposure to asbestos is the only generally accepted cause for mesothelioma.  Further, it is generally accepted that mesothelioma is a low dose disease, with no known threshold of asbestos exposure below which there is no risk.  Stated another way, there is no safe level of exposure.
