I would push it over, as setting it on fire might produce toxic smoke.

You gotta factor rehab as part of remediation cost.(I mean Holy Cow)
Some municipalities require remediation before demolition. I worked for a major Chicago demolition company several years ago. We had a major demolition contract to level a 16 story building downtown. The building was full of mold from the rooftop water tank rupturing and soaking the interior of the building. We got out of the contract when they required mold remediation prior to demolition. It would have cost an extra $1mil. to do the mold.
