Saving Farmland: Battling Toxic PFAS in Biosolids in Texas and Beyond

Join PEER to learn how millions of tons of biosolids, applied as fertilizer, are contaminating American farmland with toxic PFAS chemicals. These “forever chemicals” accumulate in the food chain, endangering human health and wildlife. Hear a first-hand account from a whistleblower that revealed this toxic threat in rural Johnson County, Texas. Discover why EPA oversight is critical and how you can help protect our farms, food, and water from PFAS pollution. Together, we can urge the EPA to act and ensure a safer future for agriculture and the environment.
