## Resource

Chemours is facing a major legal reckoning after being sued by West Virginia for dumping toxic “forever chemicals” like PFOA and PFOS for years—pollution linked to serious health risks. The state is demanding $1 billion to clean up the mess, arguing the company knew the dangers and failed to act. A federal judge has already ordered $50 million to fund water treatment, but the larger battle over accountability and environmental justice is far from over—especially as this story echoes the real-life drama of “Dark Waters” and the ongoing fight for clean water across America.
