But I’m not in the field. My reasoning for posting this: I see news about PFAs a lot, this was fresh to me and I was glad to hear the news that chemists are at work on the problem (many communities in WA have contaminated water). And simply-enough for ‘newbs’ to learn from. I don’t find a ‘technology for experts’ ‘community’ on Lemmy.
Livescience is far from the best source, but I checked that they had a link to the study (Science) in it.
It appears, going by the comments, that others who are not ‘in the field’ were happy to learn about. It’d be great if more people ‘in the field’ would post about such discoveries now and then.
