Is it just me that finds the term "forever chemical" completely meaningless? I have no idea what is trying to be conveyed except something fear inducing.
As far as I understand it’s just chemicals that don’t decompose (within a reasonable timespan), meaning they may stay in your body forever, which is usually a bad thing.
