    But they’re not a problem everywhere, they’re a problem of containment at the manufacturer.

    So screw the local environment and the people that live there? If the manufacturer could capture and destroy pfoa’s before release, why havent they done so? If they could and didnt, then they brought the ban unpon themselves.

    This is like arguing “oh, but the oil spill was in a remote part of the ocean and would never effect my house, so keep on drilling baby!”

        Right… like how hard is it not crash a ship into a bridge? Even good stewards have accidents. So if there something better and less destructive to the environment, it should be strongly prefered.
