Episode 15: Mariah Blake - They Poisoned the World
PFAS is a group of chemicals that didn't exist in the world until humans created them in the 1940's. They're highly toxic endocrine disruptors that affect the thyroid, liver, kidney and reproductive organs. Now they are everywhere. They're found in the bloodstreams of polar bears and the rain falling on the Tibetan plateau. How did this happen? In her book They Poisoned the World Mariah Blake traces PFAS from the Manhattan Project to the Trump regime.
