3M managers and scientists and C-level executives knew of the dangers of "forever chemicals" for decades. 3M continued making the product, water and land and people's bodies are contaminated because it was kept secret. This is why people believe conspiracy theories - it's happening in board daylight over decades, and nobody does anything to stop it.
ProPublica has a write-up about the toxic chemical cover-up by 3M insiders.
Decades ago, Kris Hansen showed 3M that its PFAS chemicals were in people’s bodies. Her bosses halted her work. As the EPA now forces the removal of the chemicals from drinking water, she wrestles with the secrets that 3M kept from her and the world.
