Environmental Working Group: Ban PFAS pesticides

What if the fresh produce you bought was contaminated by “forever chemicals”? New testing by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation found that 37% of samples of non-organic produce grown in the state contained PFAS pesticides – chemicals linked to cancer, immune system suppression and reproductive risks. PFAS are known as “forever chemicals” because they never break down in the environment. They build up in our bodies, our soil and our drinking water. Your voice is needed to protect our food supply. Tell California lawmakers: Ban PFAS pesticides HERE.
