I hear you out. What does nitrogen have to do with food?… I mean, really what’s the deal here? Over 78% of the air we breathe is composed of nitrogen gas…a somewhat less useful gas compared to oxygen which we use in our bodies by the second. But for nitrogen to have such a lion’s share percentage of our air, there must be something useful it brings to the table.

The term “game changer” has been thrown around quite a bit with regard to EPA’s intention to list PFOS and PFOA as “hazardous substances” under CERCLA. The reason it is a game changer is that it will greatly simplify the evidence needed to support cleanup claims at any site where PFOS or PFOS contamination exists. Furthermore, as detailed on EPA’s webpage , CERCLA liability is: Retroactive – Parties may be held liable for acts that happened before Superfund’s enactment in 1980.
