Water can be used to drink but since it has chemicals people are worried. Chemicals are bad for consumption, not good, not good at all. Water is suppose to be water, not chemicals. If we wanted water to be chemicals we would make it chemicals. Let me break it down Water = water Chemicals = chemicals Chemicals + water = chemicals Water + water = water So like I said, chemicals are not water. We want water. If the people wanted chemical water we would ask, but we didn't ask for that. We wanted water.
Take a look at a chemical pollution map of the state of Delaware sometime, Dupont used to own that state. It's basically completely red on the chemical pollution map.
California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington have passed laws on the manufacture of PFAS and banned the use of it in food packaging.
@nonyabusiness3619 as far as I understand it, those states have laws regulating or banning the manufacturing and use products. No govt or human can keep it from getting into the water supply once it's manufactured and in our food. That's why it shouldn't be created.
Yeah well, MD still has a huge problem with atrazine in the water. There's also no shortage of forever chemicals in food and clothing, just to name a couple. This is not a simple issue of red vs. Blue states. Everyone is fvcked, essentially. There are clinically proven ways, however, to chelate these substances from the cells and tissues. This is a MUST, since these substances are going to be with us forever, even if they are removed from drinking water.

You actually have a good point, the states have made the tobacco industry pay for their cancer causing chemicals, why not make companies pay settlements for these chemicals? Fastest way to get the stuff off the market is damage settlements.
@@motosk8er2 Why not? It's costing the government money to treat the cancer patients this stuff creates. Of course the government will let it happen if they think they can recoup some of the medical costs for treating it.

Lol right and not only that but I'm not sure that all of the us drinking water in all states and cities water supply has these chemicals in it and if we did then I'd say so would the rest of the world after a period of time I'm gonna say that it's a problem that resides close to where it happened and maybe surrounding states but not all 50
we need to fund this treatment technology so that we can raise it to full scale, so that we can treat ALL of our water. I don't think I'm alone in feeling that it is completely unacceptable for our drinking water to be polluted by harmful chemicals.
Distilling all of the water will consume tremendous amount of energy. Imagine people flushing toilet with such expensive water. Solution is to ban the source and stop PFAS getting into our life.
That would be ideal but the FDA,AMA, & pharmaceutical industries would be very upset because if water is good, then people don't get sick, they loose money.
Well it's clearly far more complicated and expensive to remove them than normal water treatment. Any companies that produce PFAs should pay a tax to fund it

I'm so glad we got these fact checkers and that I should just throw out my 6 degrees in water chemistry. Tell me this, The metropolitan water district pulls water from the Colorado River water for southern California, but before they pull from the river, there are more than 452 wastewater discharges into that river upstream. Any pharmaceutical medicines can not be removed by conventional treatment. The only way to remove pharmaceuticals is to distill the water. That is our highest level of purification after deionized/reverse osmosis. Las Vegas is one of those discharges, It's guaranteed that there's pharmaceuticals in their discharge.
Besides Bobby Kennedy, which candidates are assertively addressing this serious health threat of pollution and its root source which is corporate capture of government agencies?
they used the words market and customers......why would we the public have to pay in any individual manner to have our drinking water cleaned from chemicals that corporations polluted and the government neglected to regulate. regardless of that logic, there is the inherent logic that the government fund whatever technology is necessary to make drinking water safe for future generations. Either form of logic, there should not be more than a tax increase at best to make this happen.
The meat producers and farmers in our country that use biosolids all have fields contaminated with PFAS. The problem is far greater than you can even begin to imagine...
Gotta love these govt reports! "A $50 million research project shows that stinky tap water, which tastes contaminated, actually is contaminated." Who would have guessed it? 🙄
If you have the money, purchase a reverse osmosis device for your plumbing. You can’t trust any government or company to do right by you. People find the money for tv subscriptions, flashy cars etc, safe drinking water should be a bigger priority for you and your family. Take care folks.
If you're really concerned about your drinking water you can get one of the home water distillers and that will remove 99% of the PFAS from your drinking water, but it will not eliminate the PFAS it will just leave it behind in the pot that the water was boiled in.
PFAS remediation would be great if our government immediately make PFAS illegal for companies in the US as well as imported products. Then we could clean up what there is but we keep dumping more and more into the environment and its only going to get worse.
I used to dive in potable water towers and tanks along the east coast. We take a lot of our infrastructure for granted, If you saw what I saw, you'd never touch tap water again. There are some towns that I will never drink the water from if I visit again after what I've seen
oh god… i’m guessing the towers were disgusting? i’ve never drank tap water but it still bothers me our typical tap water we use in showers and to wash our hands is this contaminated…
These companies produce essential products for a majority of corporations around the country. I don't think you understand the magnitude of contamination. It's in EVERYTHING... Food and Meat included.
There's a article by John Hopkins that you should read. It's crazy because is approximately the same amount: "A new study found PFAS contamination in 39 of more than 100 bottled water brands tested"
I remember years ago when I tried to tell people that the food and water we consume are slowly killing us but would just get laughed at. People are sheep.
I'm about to just start putting a bucket outside when it rains at this point. In all seriousness though, this is why it's important for us to pray and ask God to bless and protect us form everything that goes into our bodies.
Actually, rainwater is not safe either. The Stockholm University study in 2022 found that levels of PFAS contamination are so persistent and widespread that even the most sparsely populated regions of the world, such as Antarctica and the Tibetan plateau, contained levels of the toxic “forever chemicals” that surpassed even the most “stringent” existing guidelines, the authors said. “There is nowhere on Earth where the rain would be safe to drink, according to the measurements that we have taken,” Ian Cousins, a professor at the university and lead author of the study, said recently.
There’s PFAS in the rain. Also, we need to hold the corporations accountable for their actions and limit our exposure to the toxic chemicals they carelessly left us with. Praying to god will do nothing.
@@TheMissingDislikeButton we used to with the Superfund sites, but Republicans decided that taxpayers should fund that instead of the companies that caused the disasters, so here we are.
vote for RFK for president this fall. The only presidential candidate, or politician period, in my lifetime to actually take seriously the barely regulated poisoning of our food, water, and environments.
Thanks DuPont👍🏻. FYI they tried doing a study to find a clean blood sample without pfas in it and they couldn’t find anyone on the planet. When they did find a clean sample it was from the military and it was over 50 yrs old
Great I'm out of filters and finally just drank tap water now this 😒 why is earth so absolutely chaotic. Hopefully I'll be fine. Good job on scientist working on this. Hopefully it's profitable so the scientist can keep working on this.
most generic filters cannot even remove PFAS. And it turns out that it's in around 50% of bottled water brands as well as being in 90% of the meat and vegetables we consume from American farmers...
We wonder why we develop dementia/alzheimers. It's in our water, and food. I think it's best we eat as little as possible while eating as healthy as possible when we do consume, and an alternative to drinking water is to juice watermelon, and other high water content fruits because our water is so contaminated right now. Fruit isn't 100% perfect, but i believe it's the better option. Even the air we breathe. Best to take care of your health now before it's too late. Growing up in the "hood" i wish i was given the knowledge on how unhealthy, and what these food options were doing to my body at such a young age, even the ingredients when trying to eat healthy at home. Now that i'm older (34, i'm an old man now), i have the knowledge, and can at least spread it to others.

they used the words market and customers......why would we the public have to pay in any individual manner to have our drinking water cleaned from chemicals that corporations polluted and the government neglected to regulate. regardless of that logic, there is the inherent logic that the government fund whatever technology is necessary to make drinking water safe for future generations. Either form of logic, there should not be more than a tax increase at best to make this happen.
The meat producers and farmers in our country that use biosolids all have fields contaminated with PFAS. The problem is far greater than you can even begin to imagine...
sustainable means charge all the responsibility to working classes or ordinary people

30 Trillion dollars for poisonous water.
Thanks a lot Obama.
New technology can eliminate these chemicals for 19.99 a month. 😊
What technology do you speak of reverse osmosis?
Exactly.
Basic package
Premium package
Plus package
@@gsrjaycee4521 the new technology
@@gsrjaycee4521 Reverse Osmosis doesn't remove as much of the PFAS out of water as distillation...
Gotta love these govt reports! "A $50 million research project shows that stinky tap water, which tastes contaminated, actually is contaminated." Who would have guessed it? 🙄
If you have the money, purchase a reverse osmosis device for your plumbing. You can’t trust any government or company to do right by you. People find the money for tv subscriptions, flashy cars etc, safe drinking water should be a bigger priority for you and your family. Take care folks.
Good luck holding any of the corporations responsible. After all, they're the ones which elect politicians, not the people.
If you're really concerned about your drinking water you can get one of the home water distillers and that will remove 99% of the PFAS from your drinking water, but it will not eliminate the PFAS it will just leave it behind in the pot that the water was boiled in.
Can it be a filter or an actual distiller?
@@xo7499filter yeah
@@xo7499 Reverse Osmosis filters also remove PFAS but not as thoroughly as distilling does.
@@topshotta2000 Filters cannot completely remove PFAS... was literally shared in the video. Distilling is the only bang for your buck.
When I clean out our distillation tank there's always this red brownish liquid left behind. This us what is left in the water supply of Los Angeles.
that might just be iron
Or arsenic ! Check it out !
PFAS remediation would be great if our government immediately make PFAS illegal for companies in the US as well as imported products. Then we could clean up what there is but we keep dumping more and more into the environment and its only going to get worse.
Are yall still laughing like you did at Alex Jones who said this in 90s?
Alex reported on this ? Wow it wouldn't surprise me.
Anyone can say things, understanding them it's something completely different. All Alex does is sell fear.

Don’t give your dogs tap water.
I used to dive in potable water towers and tanks along the east coast. We take a lot of our infrastructure for granted, If you saw what I saw, you'd never touch tap water again. There are some towns that I will never drink the water from if I visit again after what I've seen
oh god… i’m guessing the towers were disgusting? i’ve never drank tap water but it still bothers me our typical tap water we use in showers and to wash our hands is this contaminated…
So this explains why so many people are going crazy in our society. Can the public file major lawsuits?
no
These companies produce essential products for a majority of corporations around the country. I don't think you understand the magnitude of contamination. It's in EVERYTHING... Food and Meat included.
I'm in central Florida and if I drink more than 2 glasses of tap water I get a terrible migraine.
Are you sure your migraines aren't caused by your govenor?

We need to get these chemicals out of the environment. They're also hurting animals including fish.
The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
What do you expect? People use chemicles so much, where do they go?
Thanks Dupont 😑

It’s in the bottled water too.
Probably
There's a article by John Hopkins that you should read. It's crazy because is approximately the same amount: "A new study found PFAS contamination in 39 of more than 100 bottled water brands tested"
Don't forget the most important thing.... The cost!
I remember years ago when I tried to tell people that the food and water we consume are slowly killing us but would just get laughed at. People are sheep.
I'm about to just start putting a bucket outside when it rains at this point. In all seriousness though, this is why it's important for us to pray and ask God to bless and protect us form everything that goes into our bodies.
Actually, rainwater is not safe either. The Stockholm University study in 2022 found that levels of PFAS contamination are so persistent and widespread that even the most sparsely populated regions of the world, such as Antarctica and the Tibetan plateau, contained levels of the toxic “forever chemicals” that surpassed even the most “stringent” existing guidelines, the authors said.
“There is nowhere on Earth where the rain would be safe to drink, according to the measurements that we have taken,” Ian Cousins, a professor at the university and lead author of the study, said recently.
There’s PFAS in the rain. Also, we need to hold the corporations accountable for their actions and limit our exposure to the toxic chemicals they carelessly left us with. Praying to god will do nothing.
Thanks DuPont.🤷♂️

The government should force Duport to spend all their profit to fix this issue
@@TheMissingDislikeButton we used to with the Superfund sites, but Republicans decided that taxpayers should fund that instead of the companies that caused the disasters, so here we are.
Thats how finish dumping air control and braking fluid in landfill
Now you have to make reverse osmosis in EVERY GAIN AND EVERY HOME
NOT ALL RO IS EQUAL. Some systems will literally do nothing against PFAS... You're talking about investing a significant amount in a good system.
What do they expect us to do, stop using and drinking our water?
You thought that was all?
Turns out "A new study found PFAS contamination in 39 of more than 100 bottled water brands tested"
Its too late its in our body forever
vote for RFK for president this fall. The only presidential candidate, or politician period, in my lifetime to actually take seriously the barely regulated poisoning of our food, water, and environments.
We're being poisoned! Who would've thought?!
Read” peace without poison “
Thanks DuPont👍🏻.
FYI they tried doing a study to find a clean blood sample without pfas in it and they couldn’t find anyone on the planet. When they did find a clean sample it was from the military and it was over 50 yrs old
Great I'm out of filters and finally just drank tap water now this 😒 why is earth so absolutely chaotic. Hopefully I'll be fine. Good job on scientist working on this. Hopefully it's profitable so the scientist can keep working on this.
most generic filters cannot even remove PFAS. And it turns out that it's in around 50% of bottled water brands as well as being in 90% of the meat and vegetables we consume from American farmers...
chemical companies need to pay our countries medical expenses.. we been their guinea pigs long enuf

YEA YEA GIVE ME MORE MORE 😂😂😂😂😂

Duh. 🤦🏻Always purify your water at the least.
Anything short of Reverse Osmosis is literally a waste of time according to Michigan State Health Dept...
And how do you filter it out?
Why didn’t they tell us? I’m suing my water company
good luck
I hate to tell y'all but nothing is forever
It’s a buzz term, those chemicals persist so long as to evoke a timeframe as ‘forever’.
They do last longer than your lifetime and without our intervention PFAS would wreak havoc on ecosystems for years to come

We wonder why we develop dementia/alzheimers. It's in our water, and food. I think it's best we eat as little as possible while eating as healthy as possible when we do consume, and an alternative to drinking water is to juice watermelon, and other high water content fruits because our water is so contaminated right now. Fruit isn't 100% perfect, but i believe it's the better option. Even the air we breathe. Best to take care of your health now before it's too late. Growing up in the "hood" i wish i was given the knowledge on how unhealthy, and what these food options were doing to my body at such a young age, even the ingredients when trying to eat healthy at home. Now that i'm older (34, i'm an old man now), i have the knowledge, and can at least spread it to others.
You don’t think watermelon is contaminated with PFAs and other chemicals?
Crazy it took this long
Thank God for the liberal institutions protecting our nations water supply
Republicans would deregulate us all to our death bed.... Cut taxes for the rich and the biggest corporations...
Your not worh anything to the corporations if your healthy. They MUST keep us sick enough to need treatment but not sick enough to die.
sorry but they want us to die too.... there is an endless supply of humans.....
Trying to get our attention on this instead of something else!
I love our country. It's like we create these problems. But also we eventually solve them while walking away with technological advancements.
The SDGs were created by the USA. Obama also promised it eight years ago. Asia is necessary for the achievement of the SDGs. Climate change is an important issue.
Does Reverse Osmosis filtering remove this?
Certain ones check the specs water distillation after will help to ensure you remove the most... nothing is 100 percent effective
This is why we use a Berkeley water filter for drinking water.
Berkeley water filter isn't enough... You need reverse osmosis at least.
Thank you for all the deregulation you signed former President Donald Trump.
And they want him back for 4 more years!
I hopeful but skeptical….how can there be no by products besides water and salt? What happens to the plastics?
exactly.... salt and water do not make plastic.... they are not telling something....
