US military says national security depends on ‘forever chemicals’ / PFAS can be found in everything from weapons to uniforms, but the Department of Defense is pushing back on health concerns raised…::PFAS can be found in everything from weapons to uniforms, but the Department of Defense is pushing back on health concerns raised by regulators.
Unfortunately DoD is right. PFAS are terrible things, but they’re used everywhere (including consumer goods at an astonishing rate) because they’re really effective. Once there are good alternatives, yes let’s ban them forever, but until then we’d all notice their absence in our goods in a big bad way.

Now burning the wood from the boat is really effective at keeping us warm but until an alternative is found we will keep using the boat that we are all in to get through this cold patch of ocean.
Actually fuck no, it’d be, “we gotta keep using the fire to keep us entertained since we are all bored here in the ocean”

I notice cancer, liver disease, thyroid disease, and asthma in a big bad way, too.
