PFAS in Your Drinking Water
January 15, 2026
PFAS—so-called “forever chemicals”—are a group of synthetic chemicals widely used in plastics and consumer products. They don’t break down easily, they accumulate in the environment, and they’re increasingly being detected in drinking water across the United States. Exposure has been linked to a plethora of human health issues, such as cancer, immune suppression, reduced fertility, and developmental abnormalities.
How many Americans have been potentially exposed to PFAS through their drinking water? How can you avoid these? Hear answers to these questions and more at the Green America webinar, “The Plastic Problem: Solutions for Greener Living,” with live Q&A, on January 22 at 2 pm.
Plastics show up in daily life and even more so when you’re on the go. Here are six realistic ways to reduce plastic waste while traveling, whether locally or internationally. Read the guide.
Green America and its members push corporations to do their part in reducing plastics and PFAS use. As individuals we can also make different choices for better outcomes for people and the planet every day. Learn more at https://greenamerica.org/
