For the next several weeks I will be publishing episodes from PFAS discussions I had in person with a range of people at the International Clean Up 2022 Conference which was held in Adelaide, South Australia.  This conference is hosted by CRC Care, and there were over 600 delegates (including about 100) online who attended from over 28 countries.  There were over 230 oral sessions, and far too many PFAS sessions to count or for one person to attend them all.

Today’s guest is Professor Mark Patrick Taylor, and we will briefly discussed his research that he did with firefighters which used blood and plasma donations to reduce PFAS levels in their blood.  This research was published around April 2022, and received a lot of media attention. We will also explore Mark’s opinion of what PFAS means in the environment and people’s concerns around this class of chemicals and he will also talk generally about impacts of other chemicals in our world and what he says we can all do about it.

The next discussion from Clean Up 2022 will be published on Monday 26/9/22 then weekly after that until the end of October.

Talking PFAS contamination with those who live on or near it; with a wide range of experts who study PFAS and its health effects; with those who have worked with this toxic chemical; with those who are trying to remove it from the environment & people, and with the politicians and Government who have the power to fix this problem

PFAS contamination is an Australian & Global Issue affecting people, water, food-chain and our environment
