No argument there. This crap should not be in our environment at all. How do we get 3M, DuPont, etc to pay for our filters?
governmentsecrets.pdf , Ha! Gotcha!
Agreed, they are more expensive. Are they the most expensive? No. Do you have a better short term alternative? One option would be to use distillation. It would be lovely to remove PFAS entirely from the planet, but that isn't happening in the short term, unless you are aware of something I'm not. Please share? I'm just trying to find ways to reduce the toxic load for myself and others. Thanks!
Here is EWG's article on the topic, which gives similar recommendations: https://www.ewg.org/research/getting-forever-chemicals-out-drinking-water-ewgs-guide-pfas-water-filters
I got locked out of twitter years ago pre-musk. Would have deleted my account, but it was a hassle. So I left it behind like the POS it was and still is. Onward!
When you said "only the most expensive", I got concerned. Then I went to the website (https://cyclopure.com/product-category/store/), and see the countertop Purefast cartridge is $40-45. So I wonder what you are actually finding problematic here?
From your first link. second paragraph: "“These $45 filters can provide up to 65 gallons of PFAS-free water, replacing 700 single-use water bottles,” said CycloPure chief executive officer Frank Cassou. The cartridges will be available in early April 2022."
I know this will shock everyone, destabilize the entire Xitter platform, and here goes... I will no longer post there, either.
I hadn't seen this comment, thanks for making it.

Also the oldest known "writing" is a stick with 28 notches on it.
"Increase as dramatically as they have in the past four years" But have they really. The numbers I'm seeing don't seem to support your point:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/646261/unauthorized-immigrant-population-in-the-us/ Shows that generally the number of Unauthorized immigrants increased from 1990 at 3.5 million to 11.31 in 2006, and have bounced around 10.49 to 11.75 (2016) up to 10.99 in 2022.
