Too right @MarkRuffalo @AndrewZimmern! A CA ban on PFAS in cookware not only protects us from toxic chemicals; it shows us that better cooking comes from better choices...like the safer affordable cookware already available. Tell @GavinNewsom

Please put people ahead of #PFAS @CAGovernor @GavinNewsom. @andrewsimmern is right: we don’t need to poison our friends and neighbors to have non-stick pans. https://t.co/nqFyO0lN66

2 of 2: Know that #PFAS #foreverchemicals have been linked to higher breast cancer risk. The Teflon pan is not worth the poisoning! Please share the NYT article & our action so you can tell Newsom yes on #SB682

PS: Here's our take on the claim by the cookware industry (opposing CA Senate bill 682) that PFAS in cookware is safe (spoiler alert: IT ISN'T!) https://t.co/tOUWqMQ8l1

California Senate Bill 682 would phase out the unnecessary use of perfluoroalkyl (PFAS) in six consumer product categories.

America will be better off without nonstick pans: healthier, safer and perhaps even more skilled at cooking.

Lots of people at our annual Hike for Prevention agree! We delivered their signed postcards to @CAgovernor yesterday urging him to sign SB 682. You can sign too here:
A bill in California would phase out PFAS—aka toxic “forever” chemicals—in cookware, food packaging, and other household items. It would help protect California’s nearly 40 million residents from exposure to harmful PFAS and inspire more states to follow suit.

Non-stick cookware is NOT safe. PFAS chemicals are toxic, linked with #cancer, #immunesuppression, #reproductiveharm. Affordable safer alternative cookware exists.
California is in a cost-of-living crisis. Rent is high. Groceries are expensive. Gas is up. And now Sacramento politicians want families to spend $300+ and small businesses even more to replace pots & pans that are already safe? Say NO to #SB682. #ProtectSafeCookware

Dear @NoOnSB682 @CalRestaurants Do you want people to be serving up food contaminated with non-stick chemicals linked to #cancer, #immunesuppression, #reproductive harm? When heated, PFAS can flake into food & release toxic fumes. Its not safe! #SB682protects our health by
.@GavinNewsom, Robin McCoy—owner of Oak Grove Culinary Creations & the Lydia Project food truck—uses her business to train at-risk & special needs youth. ❤️ She warns: “This legislation would take money out of our business… creating hardship for small businesses.” #NoOnSB682

Nonstick cookware often contain PFAS – toxic #foreverchemicals linked to serious health harms. When heated, PFAS can flake into food & release toxic fumes. #SB682 protects Californians from this danger: tell @CAGovernor to sign the bill! https://t.co/okIoxjBtDS

How unappetizing can you get: celeb chefs pushing toxic cookware! But safer alternatives exist so join us in telling @CAGovernor to ban toxic forever PFAS in cookware by signing #SB682

@ewg @cleanh2oaction @nrdc @CASA_CleanWater @BenAllenCA
Celebrity chefs want to kill @BenAllenCA's #SB682 that would ban dangerous PFAS from cookware in California. These chefs either sell or endorse cookware lines that use these ‘forever chemicals’, putting their personal profits over public health.

Ever wondered if your Teflon pan was safe? Is non-stick cookware really ok? Check out our latest blog https://t.co/tOUWqMQ8l1. Then tell your CA Assemblymember to support the bill that phases it out of cookware:
