A recent Environment Agency report highlights the serious threat of forever chemicals, or PFAS, found at hotspots like RAF bases, airports, and fire stations across the UK.
These toxic substances, which number over 10,000, are commonly used in household products, having resistant properties but posing significant health risks due to their indestructibility.
Groundwater samples from RAF Benson reveal alarmingly high PFAS levels, with readings as high as 7,700 nanograms a litre, far exceeding safe limits for drinking water.
The presence of forever chemicals raises serious health concerns, linking them to various health issues, as efforts continue to shed light on this ongoing pollution issue.
