How much economic harm would a ban on untested bioaccumulating persistent small molecules cause?
Suppose that there was no evidence that PFOA was harmful. Should we allow unlimited use of it?
- wizofaus 4y agoI'd agree on such a ban. But how expensive is it to determine that a small molecule is bio accumulating? And how much time/money do we need to spend on testing? It's not the pure economic harm I'm worried about. Such a molecule might well be a key part of a genuine solution to reducing GHG emissions.
