WATER CONTAMINATION ALERT

Are PFAS 'Forever Chemicals' in Your Drinking Water

BREAKING NEWS: In a landmark settlement, 3M, one of the largest manufacturers of PFAS, agreed to pay $10.3 billion to public water systems impacted by PFAS contamination.

For decades, PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), commonly referred to as “forever chemicals,” have been silently polluting our environment and putting millions of lives at risk. Found in everyday products like non-stick cookware, water-resistant clothing, and food packaging, PFAS are synthetic chemicals that do not break down over time. Instead, they accumulate in the environment—and in the human body—leading to severe health consequences.

Common items containing PFAS include:

  • Non-stick Cookware: Creates non-stick coatings on pots and pans.

  • Water-Resistant Fabrics: Used in outdoor gear, carpets, and stain-resistant treatments.

  • Food Packaging: Found in fast-food wrappers, pizza boxes, and microwave popcorn bags.

  • Cosmetics: Added to waterproof mascaras and long-lasting makeup.

  • Household Cleaners: Enhances grease-cutting power

  • Electronics: Applied in wires and heat-resistant components.

While these products offer convenience, their environmental and health impacts are significant, as PFAS persist in the environment and accumulate in the human body.

What Makes PFAS So Dangerous?

PFAS are designed to resist heat, grease, stains, and water, but this durability comes at a cost. Once released into the environment, these chemicals contaminate soil, air, and water, remaining there for years. They have leached into drinking water supplies, bioaccumulate in wildlife, and infiltrate the food chain.

Even more troubling, PFAS remain in the human body for years, continuously increasing exposure and raising the risk of serious health problems.

Health Risks Linked to PFAS Exposure

Scientific studies have connected PFAS exposure to a range of severe health conditions, including:

  • Kidney cancer

  • Liver cancer

  • Testicular cancer

  • Thyroid disease and thyroid cancer

  • Ulcerative colitis

  • Reproductive and developmental harm

  • Immune system suppression

Millions of people have unknowingly been exposed to PFAS through contaminated water, food, and household products, jeopardizing their health and well-being.

Seeking Justice for PFAS Exposure Victims

The widespread use of PFAS highlights the need for stricter regulations and corporate accountability. Victims of PFAS exposure deserve justice, including access to healthcare, environmental cleanup, and financial compensation.

If you or a loved one were exposed to PFAS and developed cancer or other serious health conditions, you have the right to take action. Thousands of individuals have already filed lawsuits seeking justice for the harm caused by these dangerous chemicals.
