The French government has released a massive database on PFAS contamination in water, with over 2.3 million analyses covering drinking water, groundwater, surface water, and industrial water — all available in open data.
A recent study published in Environmental Health Perspectives suggests this unsettling possibility. Researchers followed 200 infants in New York State, led by Kristin Scheible (University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry), focusing on prenatal exposure 🤰 to PFAS — fluorinated compounds known as “forever pollutants” because of their persistence in the environment and the human body.
Multiple studies and publications confirm it. At CASC4DE, we regularly share this data and illustrate this reality with concrete examples (link):
In Dalton, Georgia — known as the “Carpet Capital of the World” 🧶 — a silent crisis is unfolding. Residents have discovered alarmingly high levels of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), the so-called “forever chemicals” 🧪, in their water 💦 and environment 🌱.
The latest report from Générations Futures (June 2025) reveals alarming levels of PFAS contamination in everyday food products across Europe — raising serious concerns about current regulatory thresholds.
A recent pan-European study has revealed an alarming trend in the wine industry: widespread contamination of wines with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), a degradation product of PFAS-containing pesticides and fluorinated gases.
🌍 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 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.
🧪 PFAS, the Eternal Pollutants PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic chemicals that persist in the environment and accumulate in living organisms.
