Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER), an advocacy group, has announced a lawsuit against a major U.S. producer of so-called "biosolids-based fertilizer" for contaminating the natural environment with toxic chemicals like PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). In what PEER says is the first "in what may be a tidal wave of product liability lawsuits," the claim against … Continue reading Lawsuit accuses Synagro of poisoning farms with PFAS-contaminated BIOSOLIDS “fertilizer”
Children’s bones failing to develop, adult bones deteriorating due to “forever chemicals”
New research out of Southern California has found that persistent exposure to "forever chemicals" like perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) increases one's risk of bone deterioration. In young children, PFOS exposure can impede healthy bone development. In adults, PFOS exposure can degrade bone structure over time, eventually leading to more serious bone problems like osteoporosis. Published on December … Continue reading Children’s bones failing to develop, adult bones deteriorating due to “forever chemicals”
Eight brands of butter wrappers found to contain high levels of “forever chemicals” – is your favorite brand on the list?
Mamavation in partnership with Environmental Health News (EHN) sponsored a study that shows 50 percent of 32 butter wrappers from 22 popular brands tested by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are loaded with fluorine, a PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) chemical known to damage human health. According to an EPA-certified lab, total levels of fluorine in 16 … Continue reading Eight brands of butter wrappers found to contain high levels of “forever chemicals” – is your favorite brand on the list?
Regulators STILL allowing toxic BIOSLUDGE to be dumped all over food crops, polluting them with PFAS “forever chemicals”
The great state of Maine is the first and only state in the United States to ban the spread of toxic biosludge on farms, but there are still many other states where the poisonous compounds are being dumped indiscriminately all over food crops, effectively polluting them with PFAS "forever" chemicals. Maine and Michigan are the only two … Continue reading Regulators STILL allowing toxic BIOSLUDGE to be dumped all over food crops, polluting them with PFAS “forever chemicals”
Ketchup, mayo and other common staple foods tainted with toxic PFAS chemicals
New research published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology Letters reveals in-depth how deadly per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances, also known as PFAS, are leaching out of plastic containers and contaminating the food products they contain. Confirming what earlier research also found, the study focused on the tendency of PFAS to contaminate various pesticide products via the plastic storage containers … Continue reading Ketchup, mayo and other common staple foods tainted with toxic PFAS chemicals
Tampons, including “organic” brands, found to contain toxic PFAS (fluorine) chemicals
A new report from the group Mamavation reveals that many popular tampon brands, including a few organic brands, are reportedly contaminated with detectable levels of fluorine in the form of PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances). In partnership with EHN.org, Mamavation tested 23 different tampon products in a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-certified lab, five of which tested positive for PFAS … Continue reading Tampons, including “organic” brands, found to contain toxic PFAS (fluorine) chemicals
Top 10 DRUG, CHEMICAL and TOXIN delivery devices used for population reduction and genocide

Tap water near hundreds of US military bases and thousands of industry areas CONTAMINATED with “forever chemicals,” warn experts
Groundwater near at least six military sites in the Great Lakes region contains high levels of toxic yet widely used “forever chemicals.” The Environmental Working Group (EWG) reported that perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have contaminated water in the Great Lakes. PFAS are a risk to people who eat fish caught within the polluted waters. “Forever chemicals” traced to firefighting foam … Continue reading Tap water near hundreds of US military bases and thousands of industry areas CONTAMINATED with “forever chemicals,” warn experts
Chemical giants hid dangers of “forever chemicals” in food packaging for more than a decade
Chemical giants DuPont and Daikin had known about the dangers of certain chemicals used in food packaging since 2010 but hid them from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), The Guardian first reported. The chemicals, known as 6:2 fluorotelomer alcohol (FTOH), have been linked to several health problems, such as developmental problems, cancer and liver and neurological damage. Despite that, the … Continue reading Chemical giants hid dangers of “forever chemicals” in food packaging for more than a decade
Study: More than half of popular cosmetics sold in North America contain TOXIC CHEMICALS
