Chemical Brain Drain

How Environmental Pollution Impairs Brain Development — and How to Protect the Brains of the Next Generation

@ChemBrainDrain keeps happening but takes time to be documented in science. Incomplete evidence should not justify lack of intervention.

Health-related costs of exposure to #PFAS in Europe equals 84 billion EUR each year, shows new @nordenen report!

This confirms our call to urgently address #perfluorinated compounds as part of Europe's long overdue #NonToxicEnvironment strategy: https://t.co/jKTfLQmJVP

Mercury can cause #ChemicalBrainDrain

[EU EnvironmentAgency @EUEnvironment]

Exposure to #mercury can impact human #health. Mercury presents a particular and significant risk to the neurological development of foetuses, newborn babies and children. See #EEAinfographic on health impacts.

It's the timescale, stupid! That's the conclusion by 15 senior scientists on chemical risk during early life: https://t.co/d5LHltxo82. The brain is highly vulnerable, and DNA can be affected so that adverse effects are passed on to later generations. It's indeed the time scale!

CDC is no longer allowed to use terms like "fetus" and "vulnerable": https://t.co/9phCXJOOdf. But @ChemBrainDrain may still be used, likewise prenatal risk or intrauterine exposure, and we will!
