Petition: Help Hold Corporations Responsible for Poisoning Americans with Forever Chemicals

DuPont and its spinoff company Chemours are facing intense scrutiny for knowingly poisoning both the American people and the whole world with toxic “forever chemicals,” including at a PFAS manufacturing plant in North Carolina, where neighboring communities spent years struggling to fight back.

Now, thankfully, the U.N. is getting involved, since the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been overly lax with DuPont and enforcing proper regulations.

Nine independent advisors for a U.N. human rights panel have concluded that “even as DuPont and Chemours had information about the toxic impacts of PFAS on human health and drinking water, the companies continued to produce and discharge PFAS… contributing to a global toxic contamination problem.”

Please sign this petition to demand that the U.N. Assembly take action against these corporations to enforce corporate accountability and international health!
