Chemours' PFAS pollution is poisoning NC, but the company says it reduced its plant's air emissions by 99%. My testing suggests the claim is untrue - it found levels 30 times higher than state regulators theguardian.com/us-news/2024/jโ€ฆ

Sewage sludge teems with PFAS and other dangerous chemicals, yet the EPA allows it to be spread on farmland. Crops are contaminated and water re-polluted. New lawsuit could put an end to this lunacy theguardian.com/environment/20โ€ฆ

It is truly ๐Ÿ’” heartbreaking to witness the struggles faced by our veterans, especially when they are battling serious health issues due to toxic exposures during their service. The way they are sometimes treated after sacrificing so much for our country is unacceptable.

The @PFASActionGroup of #NantucketMA has been on the front lines of #PFAS since 2020. Their recommendations following the new U.S. EPA #DrinkingWater rule align with "An Act to protect Massachusetts public health from PFAS" by @RepKateHogan & Julian Cyr. Let's #ActOnPFAS now! #MAPoli

Researchers, clinicians & advocates from around the globe packed the National PFAS Conference University of Michigan. Your International Association of Fire Fighters stood with whistleblowers from 3M & DuPont to speak about the devastating health impacts PFAS cause to fire fighters and our families.

The public is being duped again by an industry that wants to sell more plastics. Stepping back - the practice of replacing grass with toxic plastic - makes no sense. Great reporting David Abel bostonglobe.com/2024/07/18/sciโ€ฆ via The Boston Globe

EPA publicly trashed one of its researchers who found PFAS in pesticides, then put out its own study showing no PFAS in the products. New analysis finds around 40% of all EPA-approved active pesticide ingredients are PFAS, and the agency lied theguardian.com/environment/arโ€ฆ
