The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is promoting a ticking time bomb for public health and the environment. For decades, the EPA has encouraged the use of "sewage sludge" - a byproduct of wastewater treatment - as fertilizer for farmlands across the United States.

But this sludge isn't innocuous.  It's laced with toxic "forever chemicals" known as PFAS that poison our soil, water, food, and bodies. Despite this, the EPA continues to encourage the practice to this day - without requiring any PFAS testing.
