🤒 EUROPE IS MISDIAGNOSED
Blood tests found PFAS in every EU leader tested, proof that pollution runs through Europe’s veins. As calls grow for a full ban on “forever chemicals,” Brussels offers the wrong cure: weaker protections disguised as “simplification.”

Very important findings.
These results show that no one escapes #PFAS contamination & that a comprehensive ban is long overdue.
It's time to stand up to the #ForeverChemicals industry lobby.

A group of 24 European politicians whose blood was tested for toxic PFAS chemicals over the summer all had the substances in their bodies, the NGOs involved in the testing revealed today.
More than 20 EU politicians test positive for forever chemicals in their blood
The results highlight the wide reach of a group of chemicals linked to cancer, liver damage and fertility problems.

✅ Real innovation, not deregulation
✅ Clean, circular, safe chemistry
✅ Public funding with conditions
