The EPA says it still cares about forever chemicals, but health advocates are wary

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced a new plan to address forever chemicals like PFAS, but its vague details raise concerns about whether progress will be made or if action will continue. The agency, which is currently under conflicting leadership amid efforts to roll back environmental regulations, plans to study these chemicals and develop new guidelines while also considering legal battles over existing rules and court cases challenging their enforcement. This uncertainty highlights the challenges in addressing PFAS, a growing threat to public health and the environment.
