On Thursday 26 September 2019, the OECD webinar discussed "Finding Alternatives to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances of Concern: A Difficult and Continuing Challenge" with the participation of W.L. Gore & Associates, Inc. Presenters shared efforts, successes and challenges in eliminating per and polyfluorinated chemicals of environmental concern from the life cycle of consumer products.

PFAS, which stands for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a diverse group of chemicals that include PFCAs, PFOA, PFSAs, PFHxS, and thousands of others. These chemicals have been in commercial production since the 1950s and are now widely used in consumer and industrial applications. One characteristic of PFAS is their persistence in the environment, as they are extremely resistant to degradation. PFAS have emerged as contaminants of global concern because of their potential to accumulate in the human body and food chains.
On 12-13 February 2024, a wide range of stakeholders, including governments, industry, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and academics came together to discuss various topics related to PFAS. These topics covered areas such as country risk management approaches, innovation challenges for finding safer alternatives, effective risk communication strategies, monitoring techniques, waste management, and approaches to managing contamination.

PFAS Update: The “Forever Chemical” in the News, in the Movies and in the CourtsMeyers Nave
Federal regulation of PFAS is increasing and California recently set regulatory standards stricter than the rest of the nation. National attention to the potential environmental and health effects – and associated litigation and liabilities – of PFAS is also increasing due to the recent movie “Dark Waters” and two investigative documentaries titled “The Devil We Know” and “No Defense: the United States Military’s War on Water.”
Meyers Nave Of Counsel Viviana Heger presented a one-hour MCLE webinar that covers the following PFAS topics:
Sources, uses and the ubiquitous presence of PFAS
PFAS toxic tort litigation and state settlements
Compliance with the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act
Strategies to address regulatory actions in California
Recent Congressional activities
EPA’s New PFAS Action Plan and Addition of 160 PFAS to Toxics Release Inventory
California Bills banning PFAS in firefighting foam and expanding water testing for all PFAS
Manufacturers’ and purchasers’ voluntary phase-out programs
Non-liability of public utilities
Source determination and clean up
Next on the horizon: PFAS compounds, bio-solids, and crops

PFAS Update: The “Forever Chemical” in the News, in the Movies and in the CourtsMeyers Nave
Federal regulation of PFAS is increasing and California recently set regulatory standards stricter than the rest of the nation. National attention to the potential environmental and health effects – and associated litigation and liabilities – of PFAS is also increasing due to the recent movie “Dark Waters” and two investigative documentaries titled “The Devil We Know” and “No Defense: the United States Military’s War on Water.”
Meyers Nave Of Counsel Viviana Heger presented a one-hour MCLE webinar that covers the following PFAS topics:
Sources, uses and the ubiquitous presence of PFAS
PFAS toxic tort litigation and state settlements
Compliance with the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act
Strategies to address regulatory actions in California
Recent Congressional activities
EPA’s New PFAS Action Plan and Addition of 160 PFAS to Toxics Release Inventory

Tetrafluoroethylene polymer, PTFE, and Teflon are all names for polytetrafluoroethylene. It is a tetrafluoroethylene synthetic fluoropolymer with numerous applications. Teflon is a brand name for PTFE-based formulations developed by Chemours, a subsidiary of DuPont, which discovered the compound. Since it is a high molecular weight compound made entirely of carbon and fluorine, PTFE is classified as a fluorocarbon solid.

Water is critical for meeting commitments of the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Our economies rely on water, with recent estimates putting the economic value of water and freshwater ecosystems at USD 58 trillion - equivalent to 60% of global GDP. At the same time, water related risks are increasing in frequency and scale in the context of climate change.
How are investments shaping our economies and societies exposure to water risk? What role can the financial system play in supporting water security? And how can increased understanding of how finance both impacts and depends on water resources spur action towards greater water security?
This OECD Green Talks LIVE on Tuesday 14 May 2024 from 15:00 to 16:00 CEST discussed the evolving landscape for assessing water risks to the financial system.
OECD Policy Analyst Lylah Davies presented key findings and recommendations from recent OECD work on assessing the financial materiality of water-related risks, including the recently published paper “Watered down? Investigating the financial materiality of water-related risks” and was joined by experts to discuss relevant initiatives underway.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
