How to Ensure Safe Drinking Water

presentation.

Finally, the EPA has acknowledged the hazards of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and is setting scientifically supported maximum contaminant levels (MCL). DEP has published its PFAS rule-making. Learn what this means for your community. PFAS compounds are pervasive in our society. They are found in our bodies, household dust, clothing, cosmetics, and many other products that we use daily, and are found in drinking water. MPP is offering presentations to learn more about PFAS and how to engage your municipality in testing their drinking water for these toxic bioaccumulating chemicals.

Zero Waste Team In Action

PFAS In Things You Aren't Thinking About - Feb 22,

2023 Hosted by Zero Waste, PA Sierra Club

Are we being exposed to Forever Chemicals (PFAS) through local farms because of contamination in the municipal sludge that farms use for fertilizer? Are we at risk from unsafe levels of PFAS in other everyday items, like our clothes? Hear how local activists testing and analyzing in places where the EPA and DEPA have been slow to investigate. Tamela Trussell from Move Past Plastic will speak about PFAS exposure from clothes, utensils, packaging and other stuff that we may not think about. Darree Sicher from the SC/PA Food & Ag team will speak about PFAS link between our foods and farms and the use of sewage sludge/biosolids marketed as a “fertilizer”.

This video is a message to the Biden administration asking him to ban further petrochemical build out and protect PA's watersheds. We also ask him to support local communities in handling single use plastic by building real recycling infrastructure and requiring single use plastic to contain a minimum of 30% recycled plastic. Latest news for evidence for these ask: Pa. charges Energy Transfer with environmental crimes over Mariner East pipeline project The company has already paid more than $20 million in fines for more than 120 violations of the state’s Clean Streams Law. That same law is the basis for the criminal charges announced Tuesday.

This video is a message to the Biden administration asking him to ban further petrochemical build out and stop using American tax dollars to subsidies an industry that harms us and our environment. We also ask him to support local communities in handling single use plastic by building real recycling infrastructure and requiring single use plastic to contain a minimum of 30% recycled plastic.

You’re Breathing in Microplastics, But

What Does That Mean for Your Health?

Microplastics are everywhere—in our food, water, and now even the air we breathe. But scientists are just starting to understand how airborne microplastics end up in the atmosphere and what happens when we breathe them in.

How Close

Are We to

Reinventing Plastic?

Our dependence on plastic is so extreme that we have microplastics not only floating through the ocean, but also in the atmosphere, in our food, and in our bodies. So how close are we to reinventing plastic?
