Study of Earthworms Finds Fluorinated Pesticides Threaten Soil Ecosystems - Beyond Pesticides Daily News Blog Earthworms are vital for ecosystem services and overall soil health but are threatened by fluorinated pesticide exposure.

🪱 Published in Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, a study of #earthworms evaluating #toxicity of environmentally relevant levels of three #fluorinated #pesticides finds effects on growth and #reproduction occur at elevated concentrations. #soil #health #dailynews ➡️ Blog: ow.ly/oKVh50WYUF6

4 new pesticides ignite debate over PFAS definition Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN): Keeping you up to date with the chemistry news that matters most. Published by the American Chemical Society.

Meanwhile, the administration is also approving #fluorinated #pesticides that are internationally classified as #PFAS by using a more limited definition to justify this move. *eyeroll*

"CO2 is responsible for around 55% of global warming to date. The other 45% comes from #SuperPollutants: #methane; black carbon; #fluorinated gases; #NitrousOxide; and tropospheric #ozone.

As well as being substantial contributors to global warming, super pollutants are a major threat to human […]

Ion‐Transport Kinetics and Interface Stability Augmentation of Zinc Anodes Based on Fluorinated Covalent Organic Framework Thin Films The fluorinated COF film (TpBD-2F), grown in situ on the Zn substrate, features zincophilic and hydrophobic 1D fluorinated nanochannels, which can regulate the plating/stripping behavior of Zn2+, the...
