The state of New York this week sued several companies over “forever chemicals,” a family of toxic chemicals that have commonly been used in consumer products.
New York Attorney General Letitia James on Thursday sued five firms, alleging that they knew and hid information indicating these chemicals were toxic and persistent in the environment.
James also alleged the companies knew their products were harmful to the environment.
New York’s lawsuit is against DuPont, 3M and DuPont spinoffs Chemours, Corteva and EIDP.
“Big companies like 3M and DuPont knowingly sold toxic products that threatened New Yorkers’ health and polluted our environment for decades. It’s time for them to pay for the damage they caused,” James said in a written statement.
