I want to tell you a dirty little secret about your drinking water. It\u2019s not as clean as you think. In fact, there is probably pfas chemicals in tap water in varied concentrations throughout the USA. These nasty compounds have been linked to all sorts of health problems, from cancer to hormone disruption. PFAS compounds are in everything from fire extinguishers to consumer products.<\/p>

But fear not, my friends! The EPA has issued new rules that designate two widely used PFAS chemicals, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) as hazardous substances under CERCLA also known as superfund. This will help to ensure that polluters pay to clean up contaminated drinking water with suitable treatment technologies. It\u2019s a long-overdue move that we can all raise our glasses to.<\/p>

Alright, folks, it\u2019s time to talk about PFAS \u2013 those pesky chemicals that are causing quite a stir. If you\u2019re scratching your head wondering what the heck they are and why you should care, don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ve got you covered. We\u2019re about to take a deep dive into the dark depths of chemical contamination and how it\u2019s affecting your health and the world around you. So, grab a seat and get ready for a wild ride!<\/p>
