#Waiawa is among the first communities in #Hawaii to be advised that their #water may contain #PFAS (pronounced P-fass), which stands for #perfluoroalkyl and #polyfluoroalkyl substances.
Called “#ForeverChemicals ” because they don’t break down in the #environment , PFAS have been #connected to a #litany of #health #impacts, including #cancer, #immune disruption and #fertility problems.

Six former #phillies died from the same #BrainCancer. We tested the Vet’s #turf and found #dangerous #chemicals. Tests run on two of the samples by Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories Environmental Testing found the turf contained 16 different types of #PFAS, or per-and #polyfluoroalkyl substances — so-called #ForeverChemicals which the EPA has said cause “adverse health effects that can devastate families.” https://www.inquirer.com/news/inq2/astroturf-vet-artificial-turf-pfas-forever-chemicals-glioblastoma-cancer-phillies-1980-20230307.html

‘Forever chemicals’ may have polluted 20 million acres of US #cropland, study says

#PFAS-tainted sewage sludge is used as fertilizer in fields and report finds that about 20m acres of cropland could be #contaminated

Tom Perkins, 8 May 2022

"PFAS, or per- and #polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a class of about 9,000 compounds used to make products heat-, water- or stain-resistant. Known as “forever chemicals” because they don’t naturally break down, they have been linked to #cancer, thyroid disruption, liver problems, birth defects, immunosuppression and more.

"Dozens of industries use PFAS in thousands of consumer products, and often discharge the chemicals into the nation’s sewer system.

"The analysis, conducted by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), is an attempt to understand the scope of cropland contamination stemming from sewage sludge, or biosolids. Regulators don’t require #sludge to be tested for PFAS or closely track where its spread, and public health advocates warn the practice is poisoning the nation’s #food supply.

"'We don’t know the full scope of the contamination problem created by PFAS in sludge, and we may never know, because #EPA has not made it a priority for states and local governments to track, test and report on,' said Scott Faber, EWG’s legislative policy director.

"All sewage sludge is thought to contain the dangerous chemicals, and the compounds have recently been found to be contaminating crops, cattle, water and humans on farms where #biosolids were spread."

#polyfluoroalkyl substances, or #PFAS, man-made chemicals sometimes called "forever chemicals," alter several critical biological processes, including the metabolism of fats and amino acids, in both children and young adults. The disruption of these biological processes is connected to an increased risk of a very broad range of diseases, including developmental disorders, cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease and many types of cancer.

#DidYouKnow: #Polyfluoroalkyl substances or ‘PFAS’ for short are chemicals that are widespread in the environment due to human production and release of these chemicals.

These are so durable that they are referred to as "#ForeverChemicals"; and have detrimental health concerns not yet fully understood.
