Third of water courses carries ‘forever chemicals’ linked to cancer and other health issues

More than a third of water courses contain ‘forever chemicals’ linked to cancers and fertility issues, analysis has found.

The Royal Society of Chemistry’s (RSC) analysis found 35% and 37% of English and Welsh water courses that were tested contain a medium or high-risk level of perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) respectively.

These are two of thousands of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which hardly degrade in nature and are very mobile in water.

Serious health conditions have been linked to PFAS, including testicular cancer, thyroid disease, increased cholesterol levels, liver damage and fertility issues.
