"This is not just the fault of the current administration-the protections of the Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, etc.have been eroded for years.But now they've stepped on the accelerator-driving us back to the 'good old days' when anything could be dumped into the air and water."

Again, these are comments on our water contamination story.

"This horrific problem spreads beyond those who live on military bases. A Clovis, NM, dairy farmer has been dumping 15,000 gallons of milk every day and must euthanize his 4,000 cows because PFAS from nearby Cannon Air Force Base has poisoned his land, water, crops, livestock."

"This story is so outrageous that I can barely get the words typed out fast enough."

"This story says 10 million Americans may be drinking water containing these chemicals. That is about equal to the TOTAL POPULATION SIZE OF NYC AND CHICAGO COMBINED!!!"

"I have worked for the Danish government as a soil and water scientist, and a lot focus has gone in to how to handle PFAS...All of these efforts, and they can be quite extensive and costly, is to make sure no further contamination will happen."

"I’d like to know which 55 military bases exposed soldiers and dependents to toxic chemicals. I suspect that I was poisoned on at least one of the seven I lived at as a child. It could be the cause of my failed thyroid, infertility and chronic autoimmune disease."
