STOCKHOLM,SWEDEN, and DENVER, Aug. 23, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- According to a recent survey by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), at least 50 percent of people surveyed think tap water is unsafe.

Key Points:

- In the US, the EPA recently made it official: We're drinking forever chemicals at levels far worse than previously thought, and no one's drinking water is safe.
- EWG estimates that more than 200 million Americans are drinking water contaminated with PFAS.
- Globally, a recent study by OrbMedia analyzed both tap water and bottled water in 14 countries and found that over 80% of all samples contained microplastics.
