Générations Futures has published a detailed analysis on the emissions of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) by Installations Classées pour la Protection de l’Environnement (ICPE) in France (🔗Report).
🌍 PFAS Pollution: A Growing Concern Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), also known as forever chemicals, are found everywhere—in water, air, soil, and even within living organisms.
EU Moves to Phase Out PFAS Pesticides On March 12, 2025, EU Member States officially voted to permanently ban flufenacet, a pesticide belonging to the family of PFAS – “forever chemicals” known for their extreme persistence and toxic effects.
A Deep Dive into the INERIS Report on Firefighting Foam Contamination In December 2024, INERIS (France’s National Institute for Industrial Environment and Risks) published a comprehensive study examining PFAS contamination at two highly impacted sites:
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are ubiquitous—in our water, air, food packaging, cosmetics, and even inside our bodies. These chemicals, prized for their non-stick and waterproof qualities, have become notorious for their extreme persistence in the environment and their potential to cause adverse health effects.
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), often dubbed “forever chemicals” due to their extreme persistence in the environment, are now found in our drinking water supplies and the implications are alarming.
A Major Step for Environmental Protection in France 🇫🇷 On February 20th, 2025, the French National Assembly passed a groundbreaking law aimed at protecting the population from the risks associated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), also known as “forever chemicals.
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have earned the nickname “forever chemicals” due to their persistence in the environment and potential adverse impacts on human health.
🧪 PFAS, the Eternal Pollutants PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic chemicals that persist in the environment and accumulate in living organisms.
Recent findings from a study by the CLCV (Consommation, Logement et Cadre de Vie) raise concerns about the safety and transparency of so-called “eco-friendly” food packaging.
