PFAS: The Invisible Hazard

Whether you're hiking under the sun, fishing by a river, or growing vegetables in your garden, there's a risk that rarely comes to mind: PFAS. Known as perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, these chemicals easily pollute water, soil, and even the air. A recent announcement from the NRDC outlines ways to reduce the risk of exposure to these substances during outdoor activities. So why is this so important?

PFAS have been widely used in industry since the 1950s. They are found in many everyday items, from non-stick cookware coatings and waterproof clothing to firefighting foams and food packaging. The problem is, these chemicals do not break down in nature.
