Description
PFAS, or Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a group of synthetic chemicals, known as "forever chemicals" because they persist in the environment and in most all human bodies and other animals worldwide. They were developed by DuPont and manufactured into myriads of products by DuPont and 3M. On October 28, 2024, Rob Bilott, an attorney and author of the book "Exposure" presented the results of his decades-long investigation and findings on what was killing a farmer's cows and ultimately the farmer himself. This presentation took place at the Louisville League of Women Voters. It was part of a 2024 UN Day PFAS Awareness Program organized and moderated by Teena Halbig, President of the United Nations Association of USA Kentucky Division. Other presenters were Elijah Yetter-Bowman, Dr. Clara Sears, and Dr. Frederick Ekuban.
