📣 We have launched a new #PFAS manifesto! 🧪 PFAS are a group of over 10,000 chemicals & due to their longevity, pose a serious threat to human health. 🚫 A strict phase-out of all PFAS is the only way to protect current & future generations. chemtrust.org/ngos-launch-pfas-manifesto/ #StopPFAS

Europe bans toxic pesticides… but exports them abroad ! Let’s stop this toxic trade together ! 👉 Share the video & tag @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu @christophehansen.bsky.social @jessikaroswall.ec.europa.eu 👉 Sign the petitions www.foodwatch.org/en/stop-the-... www.openpetition.eu/petition/onl...

🚨 This is a message from over 100 charities, including @greenpeaceuk.bsky.social, @sheltercharity.bsky.social, , @oxfamgb.bsky.social @savechildrenuk.bsky.social and @friends-earth.bsky.social: Scapegoating refugees won’t fix anything. It's time for real change www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

🚨With 50 days left until the government's deadline for a new climate plan, we handed in our almost 40k strong petition calling for a bold and fair climate plan to Downing Street, joined by our local groups, @disrightsuk.bsky.social and MPs Abtisam Mohamed, Carla Denyer and Pippa Heylings.

🚨 Evidence is mounting on the widespread contamination of ourselves and nature with the forever chemical, #TFA.   😥 Studies have linked exposure to PFAS with negative health impacts, including impaired liver function.   Read more about TFA in our new blog: buff.ly/fV6DpDG   #EUGreenWeek #PFAS

Last week, at a heated session between the EU Parliament’s Environment Committee & the European Commission, MEPs from across the political spectrum stressed the urgency of the #PFAS crisis. *Some captions were translated from the original recording: multimedia.europarl.europa.eu/en/webstream...

🎊 This week French MPs passed a new law to #BanPFAS in several consumer products. 📢Now, it's the EU's turn to protect people and nature across Europe by taking decisive action to restrict #PFAS in a much wider range of uses. More in our news story: https://buff.ly/4bb9Vfb #foreverchemicals

👏 Great news! 🇫🇷 Today French MPs voted to #BanPFAS from consumer products like clothing and cosmetics. Over 140,000 citizens called on their MPs to back the ban & this is a huge win for the protection of people’s health & environment in France. More in our news story: buff.ly/4bb9Vfb

Our new paper, based on data from 1,705 studies, shows that pesticides are toxic to organisms they are not intended to harm, including fungi, microbes, plants, insects, & vertebrates such as ourselves. Questions the wisdom of applying over 3 million tonnes of them every year...

Fantastic campaign by @generationsfutures.fr! One step closer to a PFAS ban on consumer products in France. Here's a CHEM Trust view on the importance of national bans and why we also need EU wide action to follow chemtrust.org/french_pfas_...

🇫🇷 Great News - France is one step closer to a ban on toxic #PFAS chemicals in key consumer products. 👏 Find out more in our blog why this is so welcome but also why we still need EU wide action 👉 buff.ly/3COb3sA

Hopefully France will act to protect its citizens and environment by banning PFAS nationally and supporting action at the EU level.

BREAKING 🚨: WE WON OUR CASE AGAINST ROSEBANK. The court has ruled the oil field UNLAWFUL and Rosebank’s approval has been overturned. This is a monumental victory in the fight for a liveable future for all.

Good news for bees as government says no to use of bee harming #neonicotinoids on crops this year. Follows years of previous govt ignoring its own advisors, and campaigns from NGOs, nature friendly farmers and scientists, now need support for safe alternatives. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

My colleague Niall Toru is spot on about the government's attempts to restrict legal challenges www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Burning wood for power not necessary for UK’s energy goals, analysis finds - Experts say UK should stop biomass burning as electricity sector decarbonisation by 2030 can be achieved without it @e3g.bsky.social Story by @fionaharvey.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

🤯 For decades, some key industry players knew the dangers of #foreverchemicals. Instead of innovating, they lobbied decision-makers so that PFAS pollution keeps on growing. 🔍 Transparent, science-based action is non-negotiable. More in our joint NGO op-ed: corporateeurope.org/en/2025/01/c...

The #ForeverPollution project is putting #PFAS under the spotlight: In 2023, it mapped PFAS hot spots across Europe Today, the follow-up #ForeverLobbying project maps the costs of PFAS pollution and the corporate lobbying campaign against a PFAS ban

Shocking extent of industry lobbying revealed by Forever Lobbying Project. Decision makers in UK & EU must follow evidence of harm caused by PFAS chemicals, not listen to vested interests. #banPFAS @chemtrust.bsky.social @eeb.org @corporateeurope.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Our legal case is fighting the Government to let local areas build #NetZero homes that are cheaper, energy efficient and fit for the future. We need to raise 20k by the 18th December or we won't receive a penny. Help us, help all of us. We are not powerless!! Donate and share today #ClimateActivism

New European Commission ☣️Increasing and unregulated use of PFAS in industry and consumer products has led to widespread contamination in Europe 💦Water is one of the main human exposure pathways to #foreverchemicals 🚨EU #PFAS restriction is an urgent priority

🤔 Ever heard of the EU’s universal PFAS restriction? 😳 Sounds technical but we’ve got you covered! 🔗 Our new webpage breaks down the EU’s proposed group #PFAS ban, CHEM Trust's stance, and the timeline for action 👉 buff.ly/4i709hn #foreverchemicals #BanPFAS
