"I believe this is a serious public health concern. From what I've seen in my work, chemical exposure-even at low levels-can affect communities long-term. And PFAS isn't something that just disappears," Previn Pillay, CEO of Pyromin Consulting.
"Studies suggest that PFAS exposure can increase the risk of certain cancers, fertility problems, and immune system challenges, which highlights the urgent need for mitigation measures to protect public health."
"Since the 1940s, PFAS compounds have been used in everyday items such as nonstick cookware and firefighting foams. Their resistance to degradation makes them a significant environmental challenge today."
"The EPA's establishment of a national enforceable standard for drinking water is a crucial step in addressing PFAS contamination, which has been observed at alarming levels in America’s groundwater."
