PFAS pesticides approved after EPA adopts new toxicity definition

PFAS pesticides approved after EPA adopts new toxicity definition 7h ago

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) quietly approved three new PFAS pesticides last week, adding to two approved in November 2025, for a total of five during the second Trump administration. This approval rate is a significant increase from the single PFAS pesticide approved during the Biden presidency. The decision is particularly concerning given that nearly 40% of nonorganic fruits and vegetables grown in California, which supplies nearly half of the nation's vegetables and over three-quarters of its fruits and nuts, already contain traces of PFAS pesticides.
