It's not emerging, it's been around a while. Big business just keeps regulation at bay.
- cptskippy 6y ago> It's not emerging, it's been around a while. The term "Emerging Contaminant" doesn't mean we're only just starting to use it or that it's only just starting to become a problem. It means we're only just starting to realize the gravity of the situation we've put ourselves into by using it heavily for decades. In layman's terms "Oh fuck".
- hanniabu 6y agoThe gravity of the situation was known long ago. Dark Waters is a great film about it.
