Just a week ago the same chemicals were reported in TP: "‘Forever chemicals’ in your toilet paper might give you cancer: study.

The average American uses 141 rolls of TP per year. That is 4.6 million tons of the stuff flushed into the USA sewer system every year. Then the solids get put onto farm fields.

I write extensively about PFAs, but I’ll concede that I had no idea that PFAs were in artificial turf. It figures.

Expect to see more about PFAs in the coming years.

Sidebar: I wonder who’s responsible for placing all our local grammar school children at risk, because the fields are popping up EVERYWHERE.

Hey, you can always hope...
