In addition to the US, the European Union is also considering a proposal to ban PFAS. Denmark, Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands, and non-EU Norway are working on joint proposals that, if passed, would be the EU's broadest regulation of the chemical industry.

"Banning PFAS will reduce the number of PFAS in the environment in the long run," reads the joint statement. It will also make products and processes safer for humans.".

"You can find PFAS in penguins in the Antarctic, polar bears in the Arctic, and even rainwater in Tibet."

The overall health cost of perfluorooctane sulfonate exposure in Europe is between $55 billion and $90 billion, the report said. Even with the ban in place, the accumulation of perfluorooctane sulfonate in the environment will continue for years as waste will still release harmful molecules.

Recently, the French parliament passed legislation banning influencers from promoting cosmetic surgery on social media, while making it mandatory for them to label photos when using filters or Photoshop.

According to French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire, failure to comply with the strict rules could result in two years in prison and a $32,515 (30,000 euros) fine. In addition, convicted influencers will not be allowed to use social media to continue their careers.
