PFAS is carcinogenic

harms health

everyone is exposed

types of pfas are being banned but they are just being replaced. everytime it's replaced new regulations need to be placed on it. that takes a lot of time, so currently PFAS in general is not being regulated well.

PFAS regulation has improved over the last twenty years, but the current regulations are on the individual compounds, when a new PFAS compound is introduced new regulations have to be made. To make the regulation process more efficient PFAS should be regulated as a class.

you're probably wondering why PFAS isn't regulated well if it's detrimental to human health....

the problem is that....

this means we need a better solution. currently PFAS are regulated as compounds, maybe they should be regulated as a class

# data[].attributes.body
if PFAS is regulated as a class then it limits production of certain products and companies suffer

# data[].attributes.body
regulating PFAS as a class means every substance classified as PFAS is restricted so when new types are created they just get included. less regulations would need to be created

claim 2- ensure ALL types of PFAS are regulated

claim 2- ensure ALL types of PFAS are regulated

# data[].attributes.body
there are thousands of types of PFAS and if every compound has to be regulated individually it's more likely some compounds will "slip through"

PFAS regulation is costly
