Thousands of biofilter plants have been installed in cities around the world to treat surface water. Now Swedish researchers see a risk that the technology could fail, and that toxic PFAS could flow right through. - This is a big risk for us and for the environment, says researcher Ali Beryani at Luleå University of Technology.
A new investigation shows that organic eggs contain high levels of several toxins and may pose a risk to young children. However, the production of conventional eggs risks increasing the amount of toxins in the environment in the long run. - We need to put the brakes on (for PFAS). We should have done so the day before yesterday, says Petra Bergkvist, inspector at the Swedish Food Agency.
