“Forever chemicals,” PFAs, have been found in 36 out of 200 schools that were tested in Baltimore, Howard and Harford counties. The testing comes out of a new rule from the EPA, because the PFAs are so dangerous to our health. Some are linked to cancer, for example.
PFAs have been found in water systems all over the country. And the problem is not new. The manufacturers of TEFLON, the non-stick pans, knew decades ago about the dangers. But the government didn’t bother to regulate these carcinogens until last year.
