[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 3064347, member: 9308"] If they found these chemicals @ Holloman AFB and it was due to fire-fighting foam used, it will be present at most all air force bases (and other services installations?) meaning other bodies of water are contaminated. That means wildlife in those areas are getting it into their systems. With migration (ducks/geese), that contamination then gets spread all over (northern & southern parts of the continent.) Then people & predators that eat those birds are contaminated. The more you eat, the more you have in your system. And...it harms your health and the chemicals never go away so you never have less in your body, you can only get more. It depresses me. The most frustrating part is I'm sure there were people that knew these chemicals were "forever" and would get into the environment & wildlife and warned about their use. But other people disregarded the warnings and this gets us to today. I hope science can figure out a way to neutralize these chemicals or flush them from our bodies. [/QUOTE]
