Well if we have evidence of that sure, but in the case of PTFE for example (which is a PFAS) we don’t have that, so banning it seems just as nonsensical. Yos be banning it because it might be harmful.
But the thing is, if it turns out to be harmful, it’s too late if we have used it - we can’t get it out of nature anymore. Which is a fucking big risk to take considering the effects research has already proven with the other PFAS. That’s kinda the whole problem with persistent organic pollutants
Only if they are persistent organic pollutants as well
