I don't have the full article, do they mention Bayer? Téflon does its own fair share of damages

This is not about Teflon which you're right is one of the 10000 other forever chemicals. The specific case mentions TFA coming from pesticides. Largest Agrochemistry producer is Bayer.

The production of Zyklon B was not enough of a crime against humanity huh.

But the company will undoubtedly spin off another company and divest from the chemical in question.

Not that Bayer isn't full of shit, but the company that inherited the producer of Zyklon B did not end up in Bayer
