“3M Chemical Group in Netherlands Liable for PFAS Pollution in Western Scheldt: Analyzing the Worth of Damages”

analyseThe Netherlands holds chemical group 3M liable for damage caused by the company in the Western Scheldt by discharging PFAS. But can you put a price tag on it?

Buy one egg from a hundred farmers in Zeeland, Brabant and Flanders. Mix everything until light and airy and make a large omelette. Have fifty people eat it. One falls ill afterwards. Show which egg (or eggs) was/were spoiled.

The comparison between a giant omelette and the Western Scheldt may not be entirely accurate, but even in the case of PFAS it is difficult to demonstrate who is responsible for which part of the pollution.
