Sharon Lerner - Investigating 3M’s Use of Forever Chemicals | The Daily Show

Brings new meaning to the term “blood money” when a company knowingly sells a product, that they knew permanently leaves chemicals in your blood.

Don't forget Dupont Teflon

If I was to poison people I would go to prison, if a company does it they get a small fine. They should be criminally charged if they knew what they were doing.

John oliver did an awesone episode on PFAS forever chemicals

There’s a big 3M scandal here in Belgium, too, about them illegally releasing PFAS into the river Scheldt, and dumping contaminated PFAS soil with no precautions or protection whatsoever.

Terrifying. 3M sounding like Dupont

this is what i LIVE FOR ( not forever chemicals ) GREAT REPORTING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Back in 2005, we collected tap water samples from residents living near DuPont’s Chambers Works facility in New Jersey and found PFAS in their drinking water. We knew about this for such a long time and have been fighting to get state action in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware since then. Only recently in the spring of 2024 did the EPA finally adopt drinking water standards for certain kinds of PFAS.

Whenever I feel down on myself, I just remind myself that I don't have a job that actively hurts people, I don't support a political party that actively hurts people, and I don't spread hate and bigotry online. I may not be lighting up the world with brilliance, but I'm not trying to burn it down either. It so hard these days to ethically buy ANYTHING.

The original interview with the scientist was on ProPublica. More Americans need to support real journalism.
