Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), nicknamed "forever chemicals," pose a growing environmental and health threat. Since the invention of Teflon in 1938, PFAS and perfluorinated polymers or PFs have been widely used for their exceptional stability and resistance to water and heat.

      Bias: Pro-Science

      ???

      How could a science reporting website avoid a pro-science bias? For that matter what is a pro-science bias? Is it listening to experts in their fields or demanding studies for proof or something?
