Ces PFAS qui échappent à la surveillance environnementale

Comme bon nombre de polluants, les composĂ©s per- et #polyfluoroalkylĂ©s, ou #PFAS, atteignent souvent les mers et les #ocĂ©ans. Si la prĂ©sence de certains d’entre eux est surveillĂ©e, beaucoup d’autres ne font pas l’objet de rĂ©glementations. Ils sont pourtant observĂ©s Ă  des taux Ă©levĂ©s dans les Ă©cosystĂšmes marins, sans pour autant que leurs effets soient connus. https://theconversation.com/ces-pfas-qui-echappent-a-la-surveillance-environnementale-278118

Toxic Pfas residue identified on 37% of California produce, new analysis finds

Peaches, strawberries and grapes were almost always found to be contaminated with ‘forever chemicals’ in the analysis

The Guardian

This is more than a little unsettling, esp since "levels are especially alarming because children commonly eat fruits like grapes and strawberries, and children are most at risk from the chemicals’ toxic effects,"

But I'm sure the #PartyOfLife wouldn't support policies that hurt children, would they??
