Curious to know what’s happened on the asbestos cement water pipe file since the 2023 @CTVW5 investigation? See ⬇️ @ericszeto @LHubich @sqirlgirly @GeorgeBTsiklis @Turnbull_ward5 @ShobnaRadons @johntzup @katiederosayyj @CTVNewsRob @MaudeBarlow #ACpipes freshoutlookfoundation.org/the-curious-ca…

BPA—the forever chemical. Phthalates—the everywhere chemical. These are some of 16,000+ plastic chemicals. Many are endocrine disruptors—harming hormone health and causing serious health conditions. Read the science from @TheEndoSociety and IPEN. ipen.org/documents/endo…

I am pleased to see @CanadianWater is promoting an article I wrote four years ago. The situation will only get worse as asbestos cement water pipes continue to age, deteriorate and break. @MaudeBarlow @PreventCancerNw #ACpipes watercanada.net/feature/what-r…

@FoodProfessor The parallels to ingested asbestos are striking. Asbestos has been regulated in American water since 1992. Cancer. Health Canada maintains there insufficient evidence to show that drinking asbestos, from old water pipes is harmful. How does that work? @PreventCancerNw

I continue to find it perplexing that asbestos cement water pipes can cause mesothelioma if inhaled, but not ingested. @DrexelUniv @PreventCancerNw @@RajaFlores #ACpipes mesothelioma.net/mesothelioma-n…

@FoodProfessor Let’s hope that is the same with ingested asbestos. Old asbestos cement water pipes still deliver water to millions of Canadians. #ACpipes @MaudeBarlow @PreventCancerNw

🚨 Residents of Bentham, one of the UK’s most PFAS-polluted areas, are exploring legal action against a firefighting foam manufacturer responsible for contaminating groundwater with #ForeverChemicals This #PFAS legal case could be the first in the UK⬇️ channel4.com/news/the-resid…

#Microplastics have been linked to reproductive health issues, diabetes, and even cancer. As plastic particles leach into our surroundings and the human body, what can we do to protect our health? Join us as we discuss microplastics within us. 👉🏼 bit.ly/ppc-webinar-01…

@JJ_McCullough Asbestos cement (AC) water pipes in 🇨🇦 are also verrrrrrrry slowly gaining recognition. The U.S. has regulated asbestos in water since 92. How can drinking asbestos cause cancer in Americans, and not Canadians? 🧐 @senatorbrazeau #Cdnhealth #ACpipes archive.epa.gov/water/archive/…

A study released by IPEN and 18 IPEN member groups found #PFAS chemicals, including globally banned substances, in single-use food packaging purchased from seventeen countries. Learn more about the study and how to download it here: ipen.org/news/single-us…

Nearly 70 petrochemical companies across the nation, including 30 in Texas, are sending millions of pounds of pollutants into waterways each year due to weak or nonexistent regulations. ehn.org/petrochemical-…

@EACCanada See ⬇️ an example of a product, which is used my millions, which contains a carcinogen, which no one seems to know about - asbestos cement water pipes. @sqirlgirly @2021boilingfrog @PreventCancerNw @CWWACEPU @JoshRCrabb #ACpipes

@LauraBabcock @CharlieAngusNDP Charlie and the fed NDP know that Trump will want nothing to do with 🇨🇦 water when he realizes that we don’t regulate asbestos in water even though asbestos cement pipes still deliver water to millions of Canadians. @CanGeo @MPJulian @PreventCancerNw @markhollandlib

@LHubich @WarrenSteinley @AndrewScheer @GeorgeBTsiklis @AlexanderQuon @larissagkurz @tammyrobert Because he has been aware of the situation for several years now, I am confident only a completely unaccountable moron would continue to ignore the situation. @PreventCancerNw

@DennisKendel @bensteven_s Ms. May holds news conferences on topics, which are of importance to Canadians. We should pay more attention. #ACpipes @markhollandlib @PreventCancerNw @CanadianGreens @ElizabethMay @MaudeBarlow cpac.ca/headline-polit…
