ConText: Unpacking the PFAS Problem.

PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals”, are everywhere from food packaging to household products - and we know with overwhelming certainty that they are harming our health!

In this episode, we sit down with Louise Goodes, Minderoo’s Principal Researcher of Plastics & Human Health, to explore the dangers of PFAS and why urgent action is needed. These toxic chemicals have been called the “poison of the century” and are at the centre of one of the worst pollution crises humanity has ever faced.

We are committed to protecting human health by advocating for a ban on PFAS. Recently, we reinforced this position in a submission to the Senate’s Select Committee on PFAS, calling for stronger regulations and safer alternatives.

Watch now to learn more about the risks of PFAS and how we can work toward a future free from these harmful chemicals.
