"The chemicals had contaminated not just his body but his cows and their milk. The land that three generations of his family had worked on for over a century was now toxic."Stone took his story public, and similar reports from other farmers around the country followed. In 2018 a dairy and cattle farmer in New Mexico learned that PFAS-containing firefighting foam from a nearby Air Force base had leached into his well water, putting him out of business. In 2022 Michigan shut down a cattle farm because fertilizer it got from a nearby wastewater treatment plant had contaminated the cows’ feed with PFAS. And earlier this year, the owners of two ranches in Texas said that PFAS-laden fertilizer had killed their livestock and made them sick, too."Read more: <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/foodnews/forever-chemicals-are-found-in-some-milk-including-organic/ar-AA1o5A09" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/foodnews/forever-chemicals-are-found-in-some-milk-including-organic/ar-AA1o5A09</a><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFAS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFOS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WaterIsLife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterPollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WaterPollution</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFASPollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFASPollution</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFOA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFOA</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PTFE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PTFE</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wildlife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cancer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cancer</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Contamination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Contamination</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Chemicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chemicals</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Environment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Environment</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FoodPackaging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FoodPackaging</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Plastics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Plastics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FireFightingFoam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FireFightingFoam</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Firefighters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Firefighters</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Mining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Mining</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Lubricants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Lubricants</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Electronics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cosmetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cosmetics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFNA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFNA</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFHxS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFHxS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFB</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GenXChemicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenXChemicals</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Toxic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Toxic</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DowChemical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DowChemical</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DuPont" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DuPont</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/3M" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3M</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BASF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BASF</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Teflon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Teflon</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RainWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RainWater</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DrinkingWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DrinkingWater</a>

The first-of-its-kind lawsuit illustrates how much more regulation will be needed to rid the environment — and Americans’ bodies — of forever chemicals."<a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/the-epa-is-cracking-down-on-pfas-but-not-in-fertilizer/ar-AA1nkhpu" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/the-epa-is-cracking-down-on-pfas-but-not-in-fertilizer/ar-AA1nkhpu</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFAS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFOS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WaterIsLife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterPollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WaterPollution</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFASPollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFASPollution</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFOA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFOA</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PTFE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PTFE</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wildlife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cancer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cancer</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Contamination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Contamination</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Chemicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chemicals</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Environment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Environment</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FoodPackaging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FoodPackaging</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Plastics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Plastics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FireFightingFoam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FireFightingFoam</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Firefighters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Firefighters</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Mining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Mining</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Lubricants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Lubricants</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Electronics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cosmetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cosmetics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFNA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFNA</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFHxS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFHxS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFB</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GenXChemicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenXChemicals</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Toxic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Toxic</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DowChemical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DowChemical</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DuPont" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DuPont</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/3M" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3M</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BASF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BASF</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Teflon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Teflon</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RainWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RainWater</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DrinkingWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DrinkingWater</a>

A neighbor’s 20 peach trees had finally matured that summer, and perfect-looking peaches hung from their branches. Cordelia watched the fruit drop to the ground and rot: Her neighbor didn’t dare eat it."The Saunderses’ home, in Fairfield, Maine, is in a quiet, secluded spot, 50 minutes from the drama of the rocky coast and an hour and 15 minutes from the best skiing around. It’s also sitting atop a plume of poison."For decades, sewage sludge was spread on the corn fields surrounding their house, and on hundreds of other fields across the state. That sludge is suspected to have been tainted with PFAS, a group of man-made compounds that cause a litany of ailments, including kidney and prostate cancers, fertility loss, and developmental disorders. The Saunderses’ property is on one of the most contaminated roads in a state just waking up to the extent of an invisible crisis.Onur Apul, an environmental engineer at the University of Maine and the head of its initiative to study PFAS solutions, told me that in his opinion, the United States has seen 'nothing as overwhelming, and nothing as universal' as the PFAS crisis. Even the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DDT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DDT</a> crisis of the 1960s doesn’t compare, he said: DDT was used only as an insecticide and could be banned by banning that single use. PFAS are used in hundreds of products across industries and consumer sectors. Their nearly 15,000 variations can help make pans nonstick, hiking clothes and plumber’s tape waterproof, and dental floss slippery. They’re in performance fabrics on couches, waterproof mascara, tennis rackets, ski wax. Destroying them demands massive inputs of energy: Their fluorine-carbon bond is the single most stable bond in organic chemistry."Read more: <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/maine-is-a-warning-for-america-s-pfas-future/ar-BB1ltj4q" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/maine-is-a-warning-for-america-s-pfas-future/ar-BB1ltj4q</a><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFAS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFOS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WaterIsLife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterPollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WaterPollution</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFASPollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFASPollution</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFOA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFOA</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PTFE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PTFE</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wildlife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cancer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cancer</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Contamination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Contamination</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Chemicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chemicals</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Environment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Environment</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FoodPackaging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FoodPackaging</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Plastics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Plastics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FireFightingFoam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FireFightingFoam</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Firefighters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Firefighters</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Mining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Mining</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Lubricants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Lubricants</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Electronics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cosmetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cosmetics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFNA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFNA</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFHxS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFHxS</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFB</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GenXChemicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GenXChemicals</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Toxic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Toxic</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DowChemical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DowChemical</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DuPont" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DuPont</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/3M" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3M</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BASF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BASF</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Teflon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Teflon</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RainWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RainWater</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DrinkingWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DrinkingWater</a>

"That's according to new data the EPA released in its ongoing 5-year review of water systems across the nation. The number will almost certainly grow as new reports are released every three months. "PFAS, or per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances, are nearly indestructible chemicals widely used across industries for decades.

WTF!The <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EPA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EPA</a> is proposing that '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ForeverChemicals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ForeverChemicals</a>' be considered <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hazardous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hazardous</a> substances by Ayana ArchieFeb, 02 2024 "The Environmental Protection Agency is proposing that nine <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PFAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PFAS</a>, also known as "forever chemicals," be categorized as hazardous to human health."The EPA signed a proposal Wednesday that would deem the chemicals "hazardous constituents" under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act."For the agency to consider a substance a hazardous constituent, it has to be toxic or cause cancer, genetic mutation or the malformations of an embryo. The full list of the nine substances can be found here."The agency cited various studies in which forever chemicals were found to cause a litany of "t#oxic effects" in humans and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/animals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#animals</a>, including, but not limited to cancer, a decreased response to vaccinations, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HighCholesterol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HighCholesterol</a>, decrease in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fertility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fertility</a> in women, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/preeclampsia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#preeclampsia</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/thyroid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thyroid</a> disorders and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/asthma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#asthma</a>, the EPA said."Short for "per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances," PFAS cover thousands of man-made chemicals. PFAS are often used for manufacturing purposes, such as in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NonstickCookware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NonstickCookware</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/adhesives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#adhesives</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/firefighting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#firefighting</a> foam, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/turf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#turf</a> and more [ex, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SkiWax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SkiWax</a>]."PFAS have been called "forever chemicals" because they break down very slowly and can accumulate in people, animals and the environment. Last summer, a study by the U.S. Geological Survey found that the man-made chemicals are present in nearly half the country's tap water supply."The survey tested for 32 types of PFAS, though there are more than 12,000, the USGS said, and they can pose a health threat even at very small amounts."In June, the chemical manufacturer 3M said it would pay about $10 billion in lawsuit settlements to help detoxify water supplies across the country, after plaintiffs claimed the company's firefighting foam and other products were responsible for contaminating <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TapWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TapWater</a> with PFAS."The proposed rule will be open for <a
