Scientist @hanspeterarp.bsky.social warns, "It’s accumulating in our tap water, the food we’re eating, plants, trees, the sea, + all in the past few decades”. David Behringer adds, “If you’re drinking water, you’re drinking a lot of TFA, wherever you are in the world"

Where I live, all organic foods tested had PFAS above the safe levels inside. Not as high as non-organic foods but still.

Food is officially toxic to humans now.
Every single food product tested in #Austria had dangerous #PFAS levels. Also organic plants that do not bioaccumulate & biomagnify like animal foods. #Collapse

Yes, thought to be largely because TFA is getting into groundwater which is then pumped to irrigate crops. When @paneurope.bsky.social tested wines for TFA, they found lower levels in organic wines, but it was still present.

You can also filter the map to show just how much methane - a potent greenhouse gas - is already being released by oil + gas extraction in the North Sea. Expanding this means releasing ever more of a gas that makes a huge contribution to climate change:
