Скачать или смотреть Forever Chemicals: PFAS Invade Earth's Last Wild Places!

Here's the challenge we haven't solved yet.

While legacy pollutants like PCBs and DDT are declining thanks to the Stockholm Convention, PFAS tells a different story.

The numbers:
Over 15,000 synthetic "forever chemical" compounds exist
Only 3 have been listed under the Stockholm Convention
Arctic PFAS levels show stable or increasing trends
Polar bear livers contain PFAS at 2,611 ng/g—equivalent to people living directly adjacent to fluorochemical factories

When industry shifts from banned long-chain PFAS to unregulated short-chain alternatives, scientists call it "regrettable substitution." The current framework struggles to keep pace.

This is where honest assessment meets the path forward: comprehensive PFAS regulation needs to address entire chemical classes, not individual compounds one at a time.

We've proven we can solve chemical pollution. PFAS shows us where the next push needs to happen.
