Forever chemicals have polluted the water supply of 60,000 people, threatening human health, wildlife and the wider ecosystem. But activists say this is just the tip of the Pfas iceberg
That barely covers the pure drinking water. Now you need to cook, clean your dishes, brush your teeth…
In disaster struck areas the bare minimum needed for temporary survival is considered to be around 10-15 liters per person per day. This amount is nowhere near enough. And as the PFAS aren’t bacteria that can be killed with boiling, you cannot use that water for anything that comes into contact with the inside of people mouths.
I assumed you would boil the pfas out of the water, but thinking about that, it doesn’t make sense, you are right.
Idk how people brush their teeth when there is no drinking water out of the tap, but apparently they do it.
853 liters over 365 days is 2.33 liters per day.
