We would love to hear what you think?
Welcome to another informative episode of the Exposure Scientist podcast. We delve deep into the critical issue of PFAS—per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances—focusing on its pervasive presence in our environment, legal ramifications, and health risks. We'll cover the new EPA regulations that set enforceable limits for PFAS in drinking water, address the complexities facing small to large water utilities, and discuss the implications for manufacturers and other stakeholders. From lawsuits in consumer goods to the occupational hazards of PFAS, we're unpacking how these chemicals are challenging our approaches to public health and safety. We'll also explore the cutting-edge discussions and recent developments from the American Bar Association’s conference on environmental law. So, if you're concerned about PFAS, its impact, and what it means for you, stay tuned as we navigate these turbulent waters together.
