More than 80% of rivers and lakes in the UK contain toxic "permanent chemicals"

Times Comprehensive Report] According to the British "Guardian" report on the 24th, two British environmental protection public welfare organizations analyzed the public data of the British Environment Agency and found that 81% of England's rivers and lakes contain toxic "permanent chemicals".
"Permanent chemicals" are a class of chemicals that are extremely difficult to degrade under natural conditions, collectively known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Environmentalists say that PFAS will not only cause a "chemical cocktail effect" when mixed with other substances in water, which will have a "catastrophic impact" on the environment, but also pollute fish. Long-term consumption of contaminated fish will endanger human health. Therefore, PFAS also Known as a "toxic time bomb".
Dr. Collins, director of policy and science at the UK Rivers Trust, said that due to the scattered coverage of PFAS data monitoring in the UK, many PFAS have not been monitored, and the problems discovered so far may be just the "tip of the iceberg". Environmentalists suggest that the British government should block the unnecessary use of PFAS in cosmetics, food packaging and other fields, and formulate safety standards to avoid the "chemical cocktail effect"

A water purifier is needed under this circumstances which kill 99.9999% of bacterium and remove chemical.
