🫧 The latest findings on #PFAS #contamination in our groundwater are alarming but not surprising. We've known for years that these "forever chemicals" don't break down in the environment. It's high time for global action.

🚨 31% of groundwater samples exceed the EPA's proposed #PFAS limits, with some regions reporting #contamination in areas with no direct chemical usage. These toxins are linked to serious health issues. We must prioritize public health and tighten regulations!

#PFAS, die sogenannten „ewigen Chemikalien“, kontaminieren weltweit unser #Grundwasser - auch in Deutschland. Diese Substanzen zersetzen sich nicht u. bleiben daher dauerhaft in unserer Umwelt. Sie werden auch mit ernsten Gesundheitsrisiken verbunden.
