For those missed it, the Guardian UK has began focusing attention on PFAS, a persistent organic pollutant (POP) or "forever chemical." The latest article focuses on PFAS in freshwater fish: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jan/18/freshwater-fish-con…

But a previous article also focused on PFAS in orcas tested in Canadian waters: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jan/14/endangered-orcas-fo…

In ISLANDS - we are focusing on reducing all POPs covered under the Stockholm Convention - many of these, like PFAS, people don't know much about. Over the next few years we will be sharing and learning together in ISLANDS about how to reduce PFAS and other POPs chemicals.
