Updates in your surrounding areas:

This hole on Oak Island filled with sea foam holding about 12,589 ppt of total PFAS. The safe level for PFAS in drinking water is 4 to 10 ppt.

PFAS do not occur in nature. They should not be on our beaches at all.

NC's AG Jeff Jackson is suing DuPont and Chemours for decades of PFAS pollution. In 2024, NC Republican lawmakers buried a gift to those companies inside a Hurricane Helene relief bill. It repealed a statute giving our AG the power to sue in the public interest. DuPont and Chemours are using the repeal against him in court right now. NC's Supreme Court voted 5-2 to hear the companies' argument. Five yes votes all Republican.

New Jersey faced the same companies and the same 40 years of PFAS deceit. New Jersey won more than $2 billion, the largest environmental settlement in state history. Their lawmakers pass laws to hold polluters accountable. Ours bury polluter favors in disaster relief.

Local lawmakers who voted YES:

Sen. Michael Lee, R (New Hanover)
Sen. Bill Rabon, R (Brunswick, Columbus)
Sen. Brent Jackson, R (Pender, Bladen, Duplin)
Rep. Ted Davis Jr., R (New Hanover)
Rep. Charlie Miller, R (New Hanover, Brunswick)
Rep. Frank Iler, R (Brunswick)
Rep. Carson Smith, R (Pender)

NC has the power to stop new PFAS pollution. The Environmental Management Commission is letting polluters write the rules instead. We secured 10,000+ signatures opposing these loopholes. THANK YOU to everyone who signed.

Public comment closes June 15. Email the EMC today. Addresses and a ready-to-send script in comments.

Tag someone headed to the beach this weekend. They need to know.

Great collaboration efforts being seen with Fridays For Future - Sierra Leone!

Great work with putting words to action with "Inspired by Nature. For Climate. For Our Future," gathering and litter abatement.

Keep up the momentum! 💚

You have until June 15th!

📢 ACTION ALERT 📢
Time is running out to comment on NC's proposed PFAS and 1,4 dioxane monitoring and minimization "rules." This weak attempt at forever chemical regulation essentially gives dischargers carte blanche to continue contaminating our state waterways. Tell the Environment Management Commission by June 15: don't let our lifelines flatline. Learn how you can join the fight to protect our Cape Fear River at sustainablesandhills.org/PFAS.

6:30 Council Meeting Today:

In light of recent revelations related to an incident that occurred on Saturday at a Councilmember's place of work, Fayetteville Freedom For All has decided to pull out of the Data Center rally this evening. We still intend to pack the City Council meeting in anticipation of tonight's vote, but we will not participate in the rally itself.

Our organization prides itself on engaging elected officials and organizing the community around issues they care about in a healthy, productive, and democratic matter. We were not involved in the planning or promoting of the protest that occurred on Saturday that was organized by another individual / group that are also opposing changes to the UDO. We do not condone what’s being described as political bullying and we've decided to pull out of this rally in order to protect the integrity and reputation of our work.

We still encourage the public to contact their elected officials about these proposed changes and to attend the City Council Meeting tonight at 6:30 PM.

"A flesh-eating bacteria called Vibrio vulnificus is quietly expanding its reach along the U.S. coastline — and climate change is accelerating its spread. Scientists at the University of Florida are racing to build a predictive early warning system that can alert public health officials to high-risk areas a month in advance. With infections moving northward at 30 miles per year, 80,000 vibriosis cases occurring annually in the U.S., and hurricane-driven outbreaks pushing the bacteria further inland, researchers warn that what was once a rare Gulf Coast threat is becoming a national public health concern."

"-a lineage of ancient marine species that likely emerged sometime around the Paleozoic Era, Grist reports. Enormous, shallow seas flooded the massive, interconnected supercontinents that constituted the Earth's landmass at the time, and complex marine ecosystems developed that thrived in these temperate, freshly-formed bodies of water."

Grist reports that Vibrio bacteria, linked to severe infections, are spreading along the Atlantic Coast due to rising water temperatures and climate change.
