About

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), often dubbed “forever chemicals”, are everywhere—from drinking water to household products—and they don’t break down easily. These persistent and potentially toxic substances have sparked global concern, earning their place as Persistent Organic Pollutants under the Stockholm Convention.

In this eye-opening webinar, Environmental Engineer Brad Dalrymple and Senior Principal Environmental Scientist Dr. Karl Bowles break down why PFAS are such a hot topic for regulators worldwide. Discover the surprising ways these chemicals impact our environment and health, what’s being done to tackle the problem, and why it matters to communities, businesses, and everyday citizens.

Whether you're an industry professional, a policymaker, or simply someone who cares about the future of our planet, this session will shed light on one of today’s most pressing environmental challenges.
