I produced a two-part investigative series on PFAS water contamination in the US.
Episode 1 covers the U.S. military’s use of firefighting foam that contains potentially dangerous chemical compounds could have serious health consequences for the workers who handle it and those who live nearby. Full story here.
Episode 2 covers Wolverine Worldwide. The shoe company used to be at the heart of the economy in Rockford, Michigan. Now, it’s a $2.4 billion global corporation — and a point of contention in its hometown. Toxins, known as PFAS, from decades-old tannery waste have contaminated the water. Now, residents are left wondering what that means for their health and their homes. Full story here.
