In this special edition podcast we talk to Erik D. Olson from the NRDC.  He talks about PFAS and the impact of toxic 'forever chemicals' on the environment, on products and packaging that are all in general use. Erik highlights the research evidence that demonstrates links to cancers and other serious health concerns. We consider what this means for a variety of products including school uniforms, toys, astroturf and food packaging and explore ways in which teachers, parents and pupils can take positive steps to help change happen.

Dedicated to teachers, support staff, key workers and our wonderful NHS staff
