PFAS contamination: On Monday, PublicSource sent you two stories about potential for PFAS contamination at and around Pittsburgh International Airport ([link removed][UNIQID]) along with interviews from ([link removed][UNIQID]) former firefighters ([link removed][UNIQID]) . You can watch a primer video on PFAS ([link removed][UNIQID]) from reporter Oliver Morrison and/or attend a free PFAS Forum on Sept. 12 at the Pittsburgh Airport Marriott to learn more about this toxic class of chemicals; register here ([link removed][UNIQID]) .

PublicSource journalists attended yesterday's climate change town hall in Oakland. Our intern Varshini will have a story publishing this afternoon that you should visit PublicSource.org ([link removed][UNIQID]) to read.
