RE: PFAS: la lobby batte la salute dei cittadini. / PFAS: the lobby beats citizens’ health. [MULTILANGUAGE]

Hello! @mikitaly This is such an eye opening post. It’s truly alarming how often major decisions that should protect public health end up being influenced by corporate interests. The fact that a consultancy can work both for regulators and for chemical producers like 3M and Honeywell shows just how blurred the line between oversight and lobbying has become. The 10 year grace period feels like a compromise that clearly favors industry rather than citizens’ safety. Transparency and independence should be the foundation of EU policies, especially when human health and the environment are at stake. I really hope voices like Cristina Guarda’s can bring more accountability and real action before it’s too late.

You’re absolutely right, it’s worrying how much lobbying power still influences decisions meant to protect people’s health. Let’s hope common sense wins this time.
