Regulatory efforts to purge PFASs from drinking water have led to a rush for technologies that can capture and destroy the chemicals.

“forever” in the same way fossil fuels are “not renewable”
Please elaborate.
I am assuming the person I responded to was pointing out the “forever” part of “forever chemicals” because they aren’t actually going to stick around forever. But they do stick around for a while, up to 1000 years from a quick Google search.
Its kind of like how people call fossil fuels “non-renewable” even though the earth is constantly making more. Its just on such a long timescale that for all intents and purposes it’s “forever”
Got it, thanks for clarification. Have a brilliant day!
