Australia’s massive #PFAS lawsuit against 3M is making headlines — but the legal focus remains on costly environmental cleanup, not the human health harms @brsmeas @ToxicsFree #HumanHealth
Another major #PFAS lawsuit. Another focus on cleaning up contamination. But what about cancer risks, immune system damage, reproductive harms, and the communities living with decades of exposure? shorturl.at/MGq4r

Join the ⭐#5DayChallenge to reuse.⭐ World Refill Day is June 16, but let’s make reuse a habit all week long and beyond.
☕ Choose a new reusable plastic-free swap each day or stick with one that works for you. Whether it’s refilling your coffee cup, reusing containers for takeaway food, or shopping packaging-free options—every swap counts.
🔃 Let us know if you will join the challenge or how you already reuse in the comments. 👇

Small Island Developing States must never become dumping grounds for waste generated elsewhere. Real solutions mean reducing plastic production — not exporting pollution. theguardian.com/world/2026/j…

The most effective solution is preventing #PFAS pollution at the source and phasing out unnecessary uses of these "forever chemicals” @CEJADKenya @environmentca @ToxicsFree @PollutionProbe @CWWACEPU #Watersafety
Canada is stepping up efforts to tackle #PFAS contamination in drinking water and the environment. But monitoring and treatment alone won't solve the problem watercanada.net/turning-off-…

#Biosolids standards are especially important because the application of biosolids to land can be a major route through which PFAS enter agricultural soils and the broader environment #soilhealth @biosoil_ind @brsmeas @FAO @AgrarianOrganic
How progressive are these Canadian #PFAS standards in comparison to the EU? A PFAS limit of <50 ppb (µg/kg) in biosolids used as fertilizer is ambitious hej-support.org/eu-policy-ou…

Despite repeated promises to the contrary, “chemical recycling” is doing virtually nothing to address the enormous — and rapidly growing — plastics crisis.
Instead, it’s setting communities up to deal with job losses, major environmental burdens, and wasted public subsidies.

Food safety is more than preventing infections. New @WHO estimates include the burden of foodborne chemical hazards such as lead, arsenic, cadmium and methyl mercury, underscoring the need to tackle toxic chemicals in our food systems #foodsafety #HHPs @LancetGH @farmworkcancer
New @WHO estimates show that the global burden of foodborne disease includes not only pathogens, but also toxic chemical hazards linked to chronic diseases, neurodevelopmental harm and premature deaths #FoodSafety thelancet.com/journals/langl…
