I’ve read more than a handful of articles on PFAS, but this one really underscored just how prevalent they are- concentrated in fish, dental floss, blood donations, shoes, food packaging, explosives, food, water, the air, etc. Not only does the sheer number of them concern me, but the fact that they will be difficult to replace in anything that needs to be waterproof, high temperature resistant, or perhaps airtight is concerning.

    Businesses have damaged public health for profit so many times that I don’t think there should be any trust any more. All business processes, research, algorithms, etc should be public. No new materials should be used widespread without 3rd party safety testing.

    We can’t keep adding layers of permanent poison to the planet.
