This is unbelievable

Unconscionable.

Did The Chemours Company scientists show up to the #PFAS2019 conference we are attending? Yes. Did Emily Donovan publicly single them out before her presentation on how they knowingly contaminated her region? You bet she did. #toxicPFAS #PFAS #GenX

Very important story today: U.S. Drinking water chemical contamination #CNN

#DuPont & #Chemours are still dumping these chemicals in the water! This time they’re calling it #GenX, which is likely just as harmful as #C8 (aka #PFOA): theintercept.com/2019/02/01/che… H/T Sharon Lerner

DuPont has known since at least the 1970s that #PFAS are toxic, that they never break down, and that they are polluting human blood around the world, but it buried this data. Reporting the latest announcement w/o this context is journalistic misconduct. delawarebusinesstimes.com/dupont-commits…

#PFAS chemicals are linked to cancer and harm to the reproductive & immune systems. More than 100mil Americans may have PFAS in their drinking water. Sign to tell Congress to regulate PFAS & hold companies responsible: actionnetwork.org/petitions/sign… H/T EWG Daily Kos

This one is special to me. It’s the story of a real-life hero. And some heroes have their strength on the inside. #DarkWaters is in theaters November 22nd.

I know the story of Keep Your Promises (and SO MANY OTHERS fighting #PFAS drinking water contamination) so well, and yet, seeing it dramatized here by Mark Ruffalo as Rob Bilott just moved me to my core.

Keep Your Promises Mark Ruffalo And remember, an estimated 110 million people living in this country have #PFAS in the drinking water coming out of their tap. #WaterIsLife

Scared about ‘forever chemicals’ after watching #DarkWaters? Here’s what you need to know: popsci.com/story/environm… via Popular Science #C8 #PFAS #PFOA

Some of those extras in Dark Waters have real-life ties to the film’s story latimes.com/entertainment-…

A lab found toxic "forever chemicals" in the drinking water of 43 US cities. They tested 44 cities. buzzfeednews.com/article/danver…

So it looks like incineration isn't destroying all the PFAS in AFFF - at least not in Cohoes NY. Turns out it's really hard to burn something that was designed to put out fires interc.pt/2YecjhZ

There is a reason they call them forever chemicals

The CDC has issued a statement on the "intersection" between COVID-19 and #ForeverChemicals, which are polluting the drinking water of 100 million Americans and have been shown to hamper immune function and decrease vaccine response in kids atsdr.cdc.gov/pfas/PFAS-heal… via CDC

BREAKING: Chemours completed their non-targeted analysis report required by the consent order. It found over 250+ additional "unknown" PFAS chemicals--some "may be" leaking into the Cape Fear River. Shouldn't we all be talking about this more? Report was released on June 30th.

@DuPont_News 🍿 We love movie night! Make it a triple feature and after watching Brave Blue World, get the popcorn out for Dark Waters & The Devil We Know to see just how invested @DuPont_News is in "clean water"! Keep Your Promises Mark Ruffalo Robert Bilott Clean Cape Fear PfoaProject NY
