据法庭文件披露,纽约州已对3M公司、杜邦公司及其他数家企业提起法律诉讼,指控其销售所谓的“永久化学品”导致了有毒污染问题。

这起诉讼标志着针对全氟和多氟烷基物质(PFAS)相关环境责任的法律行动进一步升级。这些化学物质因难以在自然环境中分解而被称为“永久化学品”,被广泛用于制造防水、防污产品,但已被证实与多种健康风险相关。

纽约州方面在诉状中称,涉案企业明知这些化学品的危害性,却仍在市场中进行销售,最终对纽约州的环境与公共健康造成了持续损害。州政府寻求通过法律途径要求相关企业承担清理污染及赔偿损失的责任。

除3M和杜邦外,其他被列为被告的企业预计也将面临类似的指控。这起诉讼可能为其他州及地方政府针对PFAS污染采取法律行动提供先例,并对相关化工企业的运营与财务状况产生潜在影响。
