Petri Dish | Nothing is forever: What will it take to clean up PFAS in our waterways?

Wednesday, April 29  |  6 p.m.  |  Urban Growler Brewing Company

So-called “forever chemicals” pose a major threat to human health as PFAS has been released into the environment causing contaminated soil, water, and air. In particular, PFAS contamination in drinking water systems has been a major concern because it has been linked to increased cancer risk and reproductive problems. This panel will explore the threat posed by PFAS and other chemicals to the water supply, what we can do to address it, and what it will take to make it happen.
