Toxic PFAS have been detected in the drinking water of two cities in Metropolitan Detroit. The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) has warned residents of New Baltimore and Mount Clemens about their contaminated water supplies, reported a Michigan Live article.
PFAS is short for perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, a huge group of chemicals used by the industrial, food, and textile industries for numerous processes and products. They’re responsible for water pollution in other states like North Carolina and Ohio.
