Episode three of our series about PFAS forever chemicals. In this installment, Chris Zahasky, Maureen Muldoon, and Christy Remucal guide us through the hidden groundwater systems that let PFAS spread through the environment and into our drinking water.

We learn how PFAS forever chemicals escape from the places they're supposed to be, and start their journey to places they're not. We'll explore landfill history and design, and the story of open-ground training and testing with aqueous film-forming foams in Peshtigo, Wisconsin.

Get ready for Season 2 of Under Our Feet! Perhaps the way we are most intimately connected to the Earth system is through the water we drink. Turning on the tap is something many of us can take for granted, but groundwater's interaction with the environment has the potential to expose us to things we don't want to drink. This season we go deep into the story of PFAS, also known as "forever chemicals", exploring how the water that comes out of our faucets connects us to the rocks beneath our feet, and how it's much more than just H2O.
