A new climate group in Wilmington has emerged, focusing on addressing the pressing issue of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) contamination and other environmental challenges. This initiative aims to mobilize community members and raise awareness about the dangers posed by these harmful chemicals, which are often referred to as ‘forever chemicals’ due to their persistence in the environment.
The group plans to engage in various activities, including educational outreach, advocacy, and collaboration with local organizations to promote cleaner practices and policies. They are particularly concerned about the impact of PFAS on public health and the environment, as these substances have been linked to serious health risks.
By fostering community involvement and encouraging proactive measures, the Wilmington climate group hopes to create a more sustainable future. Their efforts will not only focus on PFAS but will also address broader climate issues affecting the region.
