Are YOU living in a secret forever chemical hotspot? Interactive map shows parts of US where cancer-causing PFAS toxins are most common in drinking water – after Biden’s new ban

More than 70million Americans live in homes with PFAS-contaminated water

PFAS have been linked to cancers, fertility complications, hormone disruption and liver damage

Biden today announced a crackdown on forever chemicals in American drinking water that will force utility companies and local governments to strip the toxins from tap supplies.

More than 70million Americans live in homes with water contaminated by the substances and the government estimates half of the country’s water sources contains high levels of them.

Campaigners have been calling for the substances to be removed from water because a growing body of research links them to cancers, infertility and a host of other health conditions – including autism.
