Washington Post talks with UMaine faculty, grad student about ‘forever chemicals’ on Everest
Paul Mayewski, Kimberley Miner and Mariusz Potocki were interviewed by The Washington Post about finding per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS), or “forever chemicals,” near the summit of Everest. Mayewski is the director of the Climate Change Institute (CCI) at the University of Maine, Miner is an assistant research professor with CCI, and Potocki is a Ph.D. student. Their study, conducted as part of the 2019 National Geographic and Rolex Perpetual Planet Everest Expedition, was published in December 2020. The Portland Press Herald shared the Washington Post story. The Bangor Daily News also covered the discovery. ....

There isn’t much room for error 8,000 meters above sea level, and everyone on the expedition knew it. Mount Everest is notoriously challenging to climb, but conducting research on the iconic mountain is an even taller task. It was clear and sunny, but the thin air was bitterly cold. The team relied on supplemental oxygen to breathe. Bundled in brightly colored snowsuits with their faces obscured by ski goggles, the scientists were virtually unrecognizable. They wrote their names on their chests with Sharpies. ....

Miner finds outdoor gear 'forever chemicals' in snow near Everest summit  - UMaine News


“Forever chemicals” used in water-repellant outdoor gear have been found in snow from the top of Mount Everest. 
Kimberley Miner says these human-made per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) — which have been linked to birth defects, high cholesterol and increased risk of kidney and testicular cancer — could eventually pose a risk for trekkers, climbers and residents who drink the meltwater. 
Miner, a research assistant professor at the University of Maine Climate Change Institute, is lead author of the paper “Deposition of PFAS ‘forever chemicals’ on Mt. Everest,” published Dec. 17 in the online journal Science of the Total Environment.
Other recent studies suggest that exposure to high levels of PFAS may suppress peoples’ immune systems and increase their risk of getting COVID-19, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. ....
