New arrivals, Monday. Available at both PFBs for the foreseeable future.
And yet, today, we are seeing the Trump administration roll back drinking water levels on PFAS, including PFBS, the chemical that 3M introduced back after it took PFOS off the market in 2000.
It's a huge step backwards
It's a huge step backwards
Today, 3M agreed to pay NJ up to $450M to settle claims it contaminated the state's water with “forever chemicals."
Last year, @fastlerner.bsky.social revealed how 3M execs convinced one of their own scientists that the forever chemicals she'd found in human blood were safe.

Yes it could, and in this case the cover up lasted at least 50 years and 3M has now poisoned everyone on earth - over 8,000,000,000 people. Not a single blood sample tested is clean from PFAS/PFOS/PFBS.

wow. EPA just announced a major PFAS rollback 😞
It's withdrawing drinking water limits for PFNA, PFHxS, GenX and PFBS that were finalized under Biden.
The Trump administration says it needs to review the science—but the science was reviewed many many times over the years it took to pass these

The EPA is backing off plans to limit four PFAS chemicals—GenX, PFHxS, PFNA, and PFBS—and wants to delay enforcement of PFOA and PFOS standards by two years. Some 200 million Americans are drinking water with forever chemicals in it. EPA can take action, but is choosing corporations over our health.
