How #Military #Pollution Could Cause The #Next_Water_Crisis..
The #United_States military's use of a #firefighting_foam, with the #intention to save lives, could turn out to have dire #consequences for those who handled it and people who live nearby.
#PFAS, short for per- or #poly_fluoroalkyl #substances, have #seeped into the #groundwater and at times #spread into #drinking_water by way of firefighting #foam_runoff.
Now, communities across the country are wondering what #PFAS_contaminated water means for their #health, their #homes and who's responsible to #clean it all up.
The #Department of #Defense had #identified 401 military sites that could be #contaminated with the #toxic_compounds, known as PFAS, as of August 2017.
The Environmental Working Group and Northeastern University have mapped at least 712 documented cases of PFAS contamination across 49 #states, as of July 2019. That map includes contamination on #military_bases along with #industrial_plants, #commercial_airports and #firefighting training sites.
PFAS, short for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are found at high levels in a concentrate for a firefighting foam called AFFF, or aqueous film forming foam, which has seeped into groundwater and at times tainted drinking water. The Environmental Working Group estimates more than 100 million Americans could be drinking tap water contaminated with PFAS.
