Firefighting Foam (AFFF)
Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) is a fire suppressant made of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that is used to extinguish flammable liquid fires. However, it also has a dangerous side effect: it seeps into the ground where it is sprayed and contaminates the groundwater. Communities with PFAS contamination face an expensive cleanup process, and an increased risk of illness amongst their residents. Learn more about Firefighting Foam (AFFF)
Juul
Juul Labs, Inc. falsely marketed its products as a safer alternative to traditional tobacco products, using colorful packaging and fruity flavors to attract young consumers. However, Juul products are not safe, with links to serious health problems and much higher concentrations of nicotine that make them even more addictive than traditional tobacco products. School districts and users of Juul have paid the price. Learn more about Juul
Opioids
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, more than 115 people die each day as a result of opioid overdose. The promotion and marketing of opioid prescription by manufacturers, wholesalers, and healthcare providers has contributed to the waves of epidemic opioid addiction now covering the US. As a result, local governments have had to cut important programs in order to fund treatment and health initiatives specifically to fight the opioid epidemic. Learn more about Opioids
