PFAS Perspectives: Assessing Exposure and Building Safer Alternatives to Better Protect Health
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are synthetic chemicals that have become pervasive in our environment, often without public awareness. Used for their water- and stain-resistant properties, PFAS are found in a wide range of consumer products. Their persistence and mobility mean they are now detected in air, water, soil, and even human blood.
This webinar will unpack the complex ways PFAS circulate through global supply chains and into our daily lives. We’ll explore the challenges of tracking PFAS across industries and borders, highlight lesser-known sources of exposure, and address alternatives to PFAS – including emerging innovations, current challenges, and the role of scientific research in guiding responsible substitution.
Join us on December 10 for a webinar designed for researchers, policy advocates, and stakeholders interested in understanding PFAS exposure and advancing solutions that reduce PFAS reliance and protect environmental and human health.
