step in voices are being hurt. right, that's, that's a now, but coming up next, some documentary, looking at common chemicals used in household items that some scientists say could be toxic. i'm told me a little while ago, stating from one he is at the top of the are the can you see is what old car has to do with the production? here's a hands on really indeed much now on youtube. want to a lot of fast food packaging and artificial heart valves having coming by

does and especially those a coated with p f. s. human made substances that on found in nature invented some 80 years ago. they have useful properties and then on fine level of i want to repellent. grease resistance well suited for using lubricants and highly states that this, which is why industry is putting them into more and more products. and that's worrying because p fast can make you sick. so you can, i can have an impact on fertility almost from quality and fetal development and what type they can lower immune response to vaccination. some have upsets, i'm a fast as carcinogenic, and i'm sure this being the you aims to run that key tub that you've seen just put in your industry claims p. fast that indispensable limits are for the come agree wants to do without him ability and dollar to production to put them to institution . do we want to do without 5 g technology and fuel cells and us? so what do we do?

that's my intent to find out the . the p 1st stands the pie and poly florio al kill substances covering over 10000 different chemicals in various phones, solid liquids and gas. full p fast since that take organic compounds or hydrocarbons in which many o lifting hydrogen atoms are replaced by florine attends that makes these compounds extremely robust and durable. but at the same time, highly persistent, meaning that virtually impossible to breakdown. as a result, these forever chemicals accumulate in soil. for example,

i've discovered that the ground here in rushed out in south west germany where i live has especially high p fast levels. we have lots of p fast in, in of fields in all directions, but with a distinct plan. just before the harvest, i grow ecologist mila need salsa and to colleague systematically collect grading samples to test them for p. fast in the lab, i'm going on these a half. if these are it's all contaminated, what happens then? then both the farmer can't market them as food. i've just the feet of a like in the window. so within the testing continues, this is meaning that the farmers animal products will then be examined just to lecture with the consumers are protect it took of allies. now the bill of how contaminated their rights in general, that they're relatively unproblematic. the grains do absorb pieces of but not

nearly as much as with weight or slowly being the for the border. the name, the stack of the skin is the fast becoming less of an issue. you know, it's a constant problem in this area indicating it turns out that the square ok, but the search for contaminants continues on eric crisis home. he grows strawberries, cereals and asparagus, and he knows what p fast can do to. crumbs 2015 was a particularly bad. yeah. they had been gone live according to us. properties are right and ready to harvest. yeah, my son's elliptical checks were done just to be on the safe side, i think. and also because there's a lot of money at stake as far light. uh, but unfortunately we couldn't sell which anything i'd have to destroy. the 3 hector is worth of a flock point thought was a tough flow. house, 70 or 80000 euros were gone just like not taking the time to deal with that. i'm leaving it. we live with us now. can you thoughts?

it's been some of the 2nd generation and father, i just my father, we started farming here. my son wants to continue the tradition, so we have to come to terms with the to the obviously even with inflation. move in house with eric rice is a 140 hacked has a highly contaminated. so name will still breeze as they observe a relatively large amount of p fast, which could mean the end of his form. how do piece us enter the environment in the 1st place and what impact did they then have? i've come to this with public research university e t h in 0, rick phone says, profess a mountain shedding has been studying these compounds for 15 years and has long warned about the inflationary use of pass. nothing's on paper, so people have their own around us. why, so i'm ready for one thing because they used a lot, especially in products that are open, meaning they can reach out to these products as well. and then this compound flooring pond is so hard to break, but people don't think great and the environment has been so once they've reached

out here to stay and continue on woods. vive a winter and want to a me think lessons me because me for us to save us a child that deployed in a multitude of ways, for example, in firefighting sites, or in every day, objects like furniture, clothes and plastics. college kinds of p fast known as fluoride polymers. i used to cause the surface of frying pens, liquid or soap like p fast cold fluoride is to effect and make materials. oil and water repellant. and then there were flo renee to o. s. gases which serve as coolants and fridges and heat pumps. v dangerous pieces, diffusion, the elephant getting hotter with different kinds, but most of them are toxic to a certain degree. if you look. mm hm. the, they damage the liver and kidneys if they can cause testicular cancer,

if they disrupt olympic metabolism, suppressed immune response and lead to the lowest pump accounts and met, i mean, sounds, i mean, and then how can i find out what contains be replaced as cost long as where someone says down and research is that in patents and industry documents, you want to find out there's no general registration calls. that's the kind of surprises. why know this via destination because there's no such requirements as keep the substances around the market tomorrow. and you factors might mix them into cosmetic creams or apply them to climbing rug safety lines and that doesn't even have to be to cloud, pardon, investments don't need to go here to the recent studies show p, fostering practically every single lithium batteries, oil and gas plants, and tanks, many kinds of paper, competing dental care products and cosmetics, customer refrigerants, and medical implants, to name just

a few examples. and so if i don't think we'll get to grips with the appropriate name and then taking this, mr. because he thinks that's why it is because he's simply reversible, comes in, you can't get them back out of the environment when you meet or it's like once you've pulled window, can you a coffee, your own, get it out again with the except on a much larger scale, so it's impossible. death is really here in probably in a spiral down to, to control it is a full stick with one of the ones, facile ways patients. yes. i think that's the reality. the info alias for this patient, the read the notes here show where it's being detected. the blue dog spec contamination is suspected, so i'm coming up to and from what it the math is fall from comprehensive and with shocking results on a line in germany and has 1500 hot spots. many a chemical plant. so apples and in the case of my home region in south west,

in germany, in fields around a 1000 tech has of farm land here, a highly contaminated why. how did this become a problem region? the missionary reinhardt is a geologist who's an expert at cleaning up p, fast hotspots as com dots, or via it happened because so called soil conditioners were applied to the fields, and also with the boot and holes could possibly contain the pope's lodge. a few, in particular from nominated paper products, all still pop you in to see the institution did see all the popular because people used to, to improve the social and instead ended up contaminating it. stuff that's in the face of full invite. and it's a patchwork of fields contaminated to varying degrees. timing is any possible to a limited extent. wells were closed due to high peach pass levels,

cleanup operations of red. this was once a contaminated field and how it was all dug out. and clean. once kinase manhattan 9 might not know, they dug down roughly one meter utah. this material was in place under a building must be under a 4 slab i sealed with the eye so that no run off rainwater can see through this material stuff as a kind either flag spotlight. he's much better to wish to him cutting the war to find rain. well, she's the p f. s out of the soil and into the ground water. this also supplies local wells, but also keeps on flowing. taking the p f. s with it that these us of i saw plus money. he was the to the water. you can see here is ultimately open ground water because there's no gravel. so it definitely does cool. and this water than passes from over there. so where the basement is by some back into the gravel offer and flows on his ground water. he says cool in such a vital method. do i think is that what does that main floor?

does the properties and feels safe then? yeah, the last one, but the one this water is taken to irrigate crops, then obviously that will be a problem. so you can see these until just a 2 d that's done. i'm pulled name is swimming is permitted here. the most. it contains the fast but is regularly monitor it's 2 kinds of p facet detected most frequently in will to hear. the fellow will pass no row to knowing as each a remnant from the production of no mistake coatings and p false or path flow ro obtained. so funded, cast that to used in firefighting site. despite those being pretty much band for years, they've built shopping ground floor to as a large areas. and it's via this ground floor to the p fast, keep polluting eric rises from every year. he uses millions of leeches of water to irrigate his crops. but the water from the wells on his farm is so contaminated that he 1st has to purify it in the silos using activated carbon sites like feel

free to steve when cali tate is the so it's clean concise or to silos. this after the 1st time cleans up, but some time after we've put in a new carbon filter site, we take most your samples, you might be to folding control and you can see that that's clean on. so what is the 1 point one, the carpet of such a rated the p fastbreak through 20. then we realize it's not working anymore has to be at least and that's why the 2nd silo is there to catch it the same process? no, but i think it's the emergency side of it so nothing bunt can happen. and it's kind of specing on the open house, you know, they change the currently we change when siler per year, i can see who the housing is. this call it. so something like this cost more concise as a set, right? $1000.00 euros. seems of that was the only one i know to i. yes. have you ever considered switching? drops out. yes. and the trouble is to, to find like this will be this and it's like having a house with

a dead body in the center. and then the last to buy it was like you currently got kept dismissed, that kind of cover. so the situation is a precarious one. yeah, press continue to find a way into the environment. why? the consequences, a well known and your opinion also rich, he's half reacted by issuing regulations and prohibiting certain types of pieces in 2006, they banned peoples in 2008 to restrictions on the food stamps in 2020 a band on p fella. limits on 20 suits of p. first in drinking water. in 2022, a band on personal, ro heck. same so funded candidates. and in 2023, a strict drinking directive. people calling just do what they want as their own ruin. some of the use of p f. s. um they sufficient all do you items not escape built by it? there's a global convention that currently includes 3 kinds of p 5 sort of band worldwide

about, but that's the tip of the iceberg, cause i stuck if you want to add permissions to apple products, you can do that from where sticking with the phone. that's and we, we need to get away from the floor, a chemical music team, and that's just part of a general reorientation and chemical policy. 242. we need about justin energy transition, but a chemicals transition to other under another way of looking at chemical products and thinking about what way using them fall into in walton mounts. we need a serious re think of florida and go and the the e. u now requires old chemicals to be registered, which involves manufacturer of submitting documentation about how safe a substance is. only those of very high concern a subject to authorize ation. although in the case of p, f s, that could soon change the you is considering a radical proposal that the production, marketing and use of or pass be restricted to the chemical industry is up in homes

because exceptions aside thousands of existing p fast could no longer be used in the you, the proposal is now being evaluated by scientific committees, which will deliver their opinions to the european commission and and he said, oh, i'm usually buying covering not just individual substances but the whole not for me to mr. yeah, this is very and usually a 1st in fact in many cases, dfcs not only mildly toxic, but that also it's streaming assistance, which means they can't get out of control to ok. also can political hawkins, when he's in front of they concluded that due to this persistence problem and the gravity of the situation, it's appropriate to group oil past together. when does, that's an almost unprecedented step in e u. a one that the chemical industry believes isn't fast because not all p fast. all the same i knew i seemed to today, shed in the netherlands, is home to us. company come was dodges to european production site in operation for

over 60 years. it makes fluoride pulling as a plastic like p f. s. the water and ground around the plant, a highly contaminated yet to come was says the chemicals used in its production. us say that again, we'd like to kind of stop questions directory over that, but go offices in writing and they said without fluoride problem is semi conduct as batteries and hydrogen technology made in your rep with no longer be competitive. i saw the plant and daughter asked women investing 75000000 euros to reduce p fast emissions by of the 99 percent. an over regulation of fluoride polymers would endanger the industrial competitiveness of the e u. and so

what does the communities affect to have to say the associate in dogtown whole assuming kimball was for polluting the environment. sonya to young. uh is a member of the co counsel, does she really think they'll be able to bring this chemical giants to? it's nice. vanessa came here in 90. 61. i think that's the most important move from them for our city. you suit the company. why? we think they must have known it when they were here for juicing, and that's i will claim that to be safe. will you have known that the chemicals you use are polluting, have polluted in the, in those times, our area and our risk for the health of our citizens due to high levels of peace on

the council, has already shots, drinking more to wells and advises people not to eat, produce, grow near the lake or swim minutes and it's now taking come us to cold. uh, is your goal also that this company is no longer located here? now that's not our goal. um, because our goal is that the use of the chemicals, the forever chemicals, to pay foss this our goal to restrict them and to get them and get rid of it. and if you say, well, just leave our region and a go to another country, they still have the use of these chemicals. it also takes a lot of courage to do, then. this is why the 2 indian decide to do it. anyway. i think it's also a statement that's a big companies don't. so whoever fee who will come out, some tell will the court ruled combos is liable for the p fast pollution?

something i'll be finding out say can lose itself. was there any found it in 2015 as a spin off from the pumps? the us chemical giant is responsible for one of the worst cases of p fast contamination worldwide. the shocking story, which has been the subject of several films played out in the us state of west virginia. but i was present since the 1950s do come to be making its test on coaching in pockets, but using the p fast compound p. so products the production waste contaminated the surrounding land and water capital on a neighboring foam, died on the farm a himself contract to come along with the suspicious, the high number of all the residents, the resulting legal bustle with the pump went home for almost 20 years. it was revealed that the company had known about the phone is toxic effect since the 19

sixty's yet continue to discharge the waste into the environment in the end do contact to pay around $700000000.00 in compensation to those affected besides the event. and that the health of thousands of people is monitored to this day. and just like in the region i'm from was like, well i no longer live in the effect today or yeah, maybe i should also have my lunch the the questions i'll get the test results back in a few days time. we evidently need to find a way of doing with out for chemicals. i want to meet people who have discovered alternatives, and i know just with the

fields that rough and p fast hotspots as a chemical and oil industry facilities here at the post of roof to them. i can see one reason why when extinguishing major glazes or in training exercises firefights has deployed a huge amounts of size. this foam used to contain large amounts of p fast resulting in the large scale contamination of entire areas. this fire academy firefight is really on how to extinguish flames with p fast free 5. i could pad, so is there. instruct? tapping. i've addressed the deputy chief of a factory fiber gauge. he used to work a lot with phone that contains p families because today he trains colleagues to put down the big places using a new kind of simon to tom. perfect. what makes it different now? yeah, yeah, i'm here. so i'm with, i'm like the old people on space a 3 m c plus i think this phone does not create an obvious film of water between

the burning material and the phone. here, it's the layer of film itself that is active. and you can see this time is stable, it doesn't fully ponce at 1st, we can receive them all and all that is exactly what it still covering the combustible material and prevent it from about breathing and possibly re ignited and also dump. yes, we've got $0.05 so this time simply be disposed of normally does the mountains and phone with p fast people. so i think i felt most i'm that needs to be incinerated as hazardous waste and so i can just release it into the environments. yeah, that's what happened for decades on a large scale and with domestic consequences. now it's possible to find even large files using p fast, free fun. still, it'll be a huge task to train or firefighters, how to use it, and upgrade to thousands of facilities. and what's nice about all sent in 1st we had to find out how to extinguish fires and the story was pretty phone based on

those. then what adjustments need to be made the equipment and how do we need to clean the vehicles in tanks to ensure that the p fos, from the old tom was really gone and isn't now in the newsome line. so i'm going to be other than i the people that right away made off of it. there's no, it was a long process i'll consume with no firms to ask about that. and then we had to learn how and develop our own system of the the think. now we know it's a major project for every vehicle in the fire extinguishing system itself requires a huge amount of time and money on and they tend to lose right among the 1st product. so a manufacturer has tried to replace piece hospice outdoor gas featuring move to repellant materials. how successful was a visit found a in southern germany. the company was a pioneer in making p fast free sportswear with all the friends following since the funds had of development. bettina hold gives me

a tour if the pounds this is water repellant. right? yeah. so you know, they always p fast free. now i them. yeah, yes, yeah. okay. it shows the production of new fabrics is a bit more involved. lots of 2 generations of developments and lots of trial and error then now just as move to resistant and durable as tech styles coated is based on the amounts of water coming out of this shower is equivalent to heavy rain full. but nice to a nice and drawing the fast free out to where it works and is now widely available . from lack of it, it was a long journey used to be. we had to convince the chemical industry to do something in which we have to convince our supply chain to switch to p, faucet free alternative items, which meant changing entire production processes. let's put test it. just as i've

been with us. i have been split says i got that, then there were very few, pretty fast free alternatives on the market. much the chemical industry simply didn't offer them because the demand wasn't there and then we've done. yeah. done. com. okay, but some point green piece launch detox i paid was a big focus on p 1st and the outdoor and sort, square industry was publicly taken to task comp and then things really picked up speed i, there was pressure to change. and so the chemical industry got moving to and instead of one alternative, suddenly you have many to try out to do more than those will be included and getting there was all tricky clearly the industry needs and also time to come up with alternatives. but who is the lease of the industry? exactly. the major manufacturer has a, based in the us that produce all life, including in europe, 3 m, known freights that he serves and face masks, is a major producer. yep,

3 and plans to quit manufacturing p fast. by the end of 2025. wide. the 3 i will pay more than $10000000000.00 to settle lawsuits surrounding for ever chemicals and drinking water. the us multinational 3 m says it's reached a tentative 10 worldwide. gm is facing hundreds of low suits, related to p fast pollution. in 2023 alone, it's settled in array of claims in the us by agreeing to pay over $10000000000.00 in american history. next, i head over to the 3 m subsidy re dining and located in gained off the various largest chemical talk. the pound, which 3 m plans to close, soon lies on the river. it's this region has been battling p fast pollution for years deficient and terminated and drinking water has to be filled since i'm not allowed on the high security factory grounds. so they'll be no interview with dine

in. it makes flu road. pelham is used to cope components and chemical plants. and in the production of mike quick chips. the man i'm meeting he is the chemical pox for my direct to now spokesman for a low be great backing this location, but he won't let me onto the grounds either. instead, he takes me to a meeting room with an aerial photo of the chemical plant on the scene. so we're right up there in that white building does. uh huh. where exactly of the piece that's produced, the yeah, the device shouldn't even be so much right now and have the operations here on the edge of the factory premises in this unassisted 0 of the biggest production facility for federal polymers. the whole 40 percent of the amounts produce in all of europe comes from here, which is not just 3 items large. and so it's a biggest plant of its kind in europe. and the most modern in the world goes down,

is this thing with dance to unlock it of it. that's what he says. he says why it's closer as a problem, not just for workers here, but also for european industry. has you on this page industry? i think that's why you know, so attached to this. pacey, hang on, do some stones, i'm attached to this location with all my heart and soul. do nothing. because for the foreseeable future, a modern industrial society can't do without the for a polymers that are produced here. and it's not possible for technological reasons, takes the longest coin carbon in florida, and i can find a strong this bond known in chemistry next. and that's why they can't be replaced. can this we can, can use the search to stand out done for now is easy, but you also can't force other items to behave like flooring. and these are what this is to fit the material. properties of liking soft c, i'm yes, and i agree. gasoline powered car as a kilo of to little polymers and a teaser group of medicine and electric version will have to come to your house as

a team kilten limits. do we want to do without e mobility? when do i want to do without chip reduction or 5 g technology lane of defense key taking a look if it's a fuel cell is hydrogen electrolysis since they're all involved. floral polymer membranes, putting him on the p fast equals no energy transition and no future technologies for the cam. delta spokesman, this seems to be no doubts. his group even expects the market for us to grow does not being for production to continue again, dose in this thinking, the industry being against radical restrictions isn't tool that surprising check. but business interests assigned to they have a point i travel to franklin to visit to small style top cool, to be honest, switches investigating new ways of making fuel cells to date,

fuel cells of all required pumps that contain p fast, like many of the hydrogen technologies oh i, that's all that's about as far as the 16 strong team is he on assist, is trying to change that before the cfo needs along. that tells us how far they've come. this is how fuel cells walk of the fuel cells transform chemical energy from se hydrogen into electric power without combustion. power used to propel trucks. for example, hydrogen protons passed through a membrane only me able to positively charged particles. the electrons travel through an external circuit producing connect tricity as each cell generates just one volts that combined into stacks, open comprising hundreds of fuel cells. the house of every cell is its proton

exchange membrane, which has to be chemically stable, durable, an easy to make, which amounts of the fuel cell contain pieces caught in the membrane in the electrode is made of for flu, rosel sonic acid health, which belongs to the dfcs family us to the p foster. her acceptance of photos are fluid, also sonic acid has a high proton conduct to vittie, onto permeability total factors. that's why p 5. so there's a popular option right now, as i'm, as it performs best under the requirements, it conducts protons and sufficiently stabilize the stuff. it says that's what needs replace it. right? there's a 5th to assess and does it work from us from it. we're here to a certain extent and give us a ma, we've already proven its performance and a full format sound, which could then actually be built into the standard of about them. but the technology isn't market ready yet, additional it'll be mark plus us. that's when do you expect to see because it was in the, as we're aiming to have something market ready by the end of the year after next.

and then of course, we still have to produce it at scale. how about different understood, but ours aren't the only components in the fuel cell stack that use p 57 of the manufacturers of the gas diffusion layers. i'm a sealants also need to follow suggest the additional mis monitor. this i'll not seen as the pieces are a necessity in hydrogen technology right now. they're not going forward. so there's investment punishment going on. as of right talk today. we still need pieces hot, so as not to nip the versioning hydrogen economy in the bind, fresh thinking about it's very important, these substances the band to ensure that over time green hydrogen technologies really are green and that everyone in the industry works together to develop these alternatives so i cannot even spend money in the industry is still very am and play fighting change and continue to buy and compete . we get some news from the verdict testing reached in the trial against

cameras. the local authority one the judge ruled the cameras actually illegally and was responsible for the pollution. so the relevant communities have a rights to compensation. while they continue to fight for p fast to be banned worldwide, the 2 most responded that it is willing to discuss concrete mentions, but not to stop producing p fast to get them back to 0. isn't we really dependent on p, f. s 9? know? mm hm. the film and these companies on that of that they should be searching for alternatives in many areas, they've already started off with them having to find alternatives, triggers a great up search and innovation of newest icons even feed. and some of us today, the biggest proportion of p fast going to air conditioners, cooling systems,

and heat pumps in the form of flu. renee to the gases which he used is refrigerants, the more heat pumps will be needed as we transition to green, a sources of energy. here at the found whole for institution, fryeburg, lena snap is conducting research into the heat pumps of tomorrow. instead of s, gas is they will operate using natural refrigerants, like propane some manufacturers are already producing these propane heat pumps got 2 different codes, natural refrigerants are found in nature, so they're easily tolerated in utah. and that's an exciting aspect when it comes to looking for alternative damage. i'm, i'm just fun. no effect on. i don't know when you're going, how well do they work? upon propane is a tried and true refrigerant is, and it works just as well as existing refrigerants. and the last for the higher

temperatures involved in the renovation of older buildings, it's sometimes even better than the usual refrigerants. the engineer shows me the inner workings of a heat pump, a tangle of pipes and cables. so it seems, well, the small when you can see that the device like this is meant to heat an entire house. and where does the refrigerant flow here? this is the compressor, it's the component that pumps it around. it's not trilled propane works just as well, and just being in use for decades. i wonder why did industries replace it with p fast gas in the 1st place? so pain is farmable. that's the big issue and the split what it is it, and it's great, you wouldn't have a problem with having a propane heat pump ahead on. you said that i wouldn't because i have a feeling. so what the company's really put into which i want to measure is to see

how much refrigerant you really need, the 9th of how much you can reduce the amount to also lower the safety risk. besides physical science flies with heat pumps, then this is subject refrigerants. containing p fast can easily be replaced, but for as long as they can, industries will keep using f gases and other p fast chemicals. simply because that's so practical that that continued production means that the fast but also cheap accumulate in the grounds, in rain. and also, you know, abilities i have an appointment with the toxicologist from germany's environmental protection agency to see how contaminated to my blood . this is, have you had your test results and is expected we could find for fluent aided chemicals in your blood. and sarah looked, an emergency room for me. mm hm. we found

a little more piscolla then p for which is bank. save because of the fella is a substance that already has an effect at low concentration. some concepts have soon dropped and your contamination is so high that we can hold out with any certainty that it won't affect your health. we'll see some can bottom. that means what? so yeah, the fact that you're in relatively good company today, we haven't found a single person, children's teenagers or adults. i knew where the substances weren't present excuses to finish having enough buys and couldn't. how did they get to my bulging mind cup and it comes to about how likely through food and drink. but if you have frequent conception of eggs, efficiency, food, or organ meats or that you know vine is and haven't eaten meat for 30 years. oh isn't oh that's tough. it's of course that's good. but also disconcerting about what i'm getting in testing. so is it oh, from context obviously. yeah. yeah, this is included is everywhere in the environment is a b t a is this,

i didn't vouchers. expensive. personally, i find it annoying that we spend so much time discussing whether to take counter measures against forever. chemicals getting lost number guidance so so, so you're inside where of a band opposite. absolutely. invite you to a data on the contamination of children and young people in germany and young people and adults throughout europe shows that our population is too highly contaminated for us to be able to safely rule out effects on danger, as to our health. and thank us, thank you. and what can i do about nothing? ultimately, we need laws to prevent more contamination. can the use p fast restriction proposal, a chief that industries have been fighting it for months. the main argument being that p fast are indispensable notion that many of us such is disagree with

skipped securely. and they're also talking to individual products, the web dfcs of very important, which we call essential onto additional hot bound. so i'll send a cube sort of tap loan for example, we have them full filter of polymers for dialysis machines, where it's vital does not, doesn't clump prostate talking about what we think i'm clean and that's, and that's those applications where the fast are extremely effective. and we'll continue to need them, but lots of just a small fraction of the many, many uses at present when it's limiting use to these of your final applications with launch the solve. the problem includes the arguments and now being assessed by the european chemicals agency who will prevail? that will ultimately be decided by the european commission, the governments of e u. member states and the european parliament into a 3 years time. but we still have no um set as to what can be done about the huge amounts of p, fos that are already in the environment. getting rid of them is like trying to
