The Texas attorney general is investigating Lululemon for potential use of forever chemicals.
The company said the chemicals were previously used in some water-repellent clothing items, but it phased out their use back in 2023.
The chemicals known as Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, are found in everything from cookware to food packaging and don’t break down in the environment.
We know how important clean water is, but tricky chemicals that get into our water can be hard to detect, posing dangers to our water systems and our health – until now.
Researchers from the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory have devised a new method to detect minuscule levels of PFAs, known as "forever chemicals," in water in a matter of minutes.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court has delivered a victory for environmentalists in the battle over the regulation of "forever chemicals" known as PFAS.
The EPA issued the first-ever national regulation limiting the amount of certain PFAS in drinking water. Here's what to know about potential health impacts of "forever chemicals."
Also known as PFAS, they never break down, are linked to certain cancers and are found in everyday products such as clothes, cookware, cosmetics and cleaning supplies.
Researchers say it's the equivalent of drinking a month's worth of water contaminated with toxic "forever chemicals" known as PFAS.
