Hi John,

So what’s up with 3M’s pink ribbon Post-its? Are we being exposed to PFAS through Post-its? The truth is we don’t know for sure. But we do know that independent labs are advised not to use Post-its when sampling and testing for PFAS because of the potential cross-contamination.
 
And we know that 3M’s PFAS are in hundreds of other products. Which is why we’re telling 3M’s executives to stop producing, selling and using all PFAS.
 
The PFAS problem is bigger than any single product. PFAS exposure is an urgent public health issue that cuts across communities, and unites environmental justice and health activists. And we’re proud that 25 powerful and diverse organizations have endorsed our Say Never to Forever Chemicals campaign.
 

 
The Indigenous Peoples Task Force, located in Minnesota, that is one of our partners and is outraged by the health consequences of 3M’s products, and the harm to local communities. In response, they refuse to allow 3M products in their office. It’s a bold and principled stand.
 
But the problem with PFAS is bigger than our own purchasing choices. After all, the polar bears with PFAS in their bodies aren’t using 3M office products! And we know we’re all exposed to harmful PFAS from before birth, and throughout our lives.
 

That is why we’re calling on 3M to stop the production, use, and sale of ALL PFAS.
 
Join us. Make your voice heard and do something besides worry.  
 
Our easy online tool lets you tell 3M executives it’s time they Say Never to Forever Chemicals. Because when we join together, we can stand up to multibillion dollar corporations.
 
We’ve drafted a letter you can send directly to 3M executives Michael Roman, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and Stephen Shafer, Senior Vice President of Business Development & Marketing Sales.

Together let’s tell 3M to stop the production, use, and sale of their toxic PFAS! Our lives and our health are on the line.
 
Best,
