I dunno, the proliferation of pfas everywhere is pretty detrimental to life on this planet. In general it is the result of the same kind of industrial criminal negligence and weaksauce regulations.
We really should have tackled both issues decades ago but yay line go up right now, so fuck the future.
PFAS is a massive problem certainly worth tackling, but as bad as it is, I don’t think it’s an existential threat with a very short time window to prevent devastation of the species like climate change is.
Theoretically there’s no reason we can’t tackle both problems at once, but personally I would advocate pumping as much resources as humanly possible into preventing climate change first, if that’s the only way politicians will deal with it.
