I agree with the message but I don't know if arsenic + toxic algae in water necessarily deserve two separate slots in the Top 8 Prospective Millennial Parent Worries.
I'm more worried about the plastic, pesticides, degraded pharmaceuticals and heavy metals myself
Yes, including... freshwater fish! https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jan/18/freshwater-fish-contaminated-forever-chemicals
More generally the sixth mass extinction
JFC, I keep track on the PFAS situation but I've missed this. I have friends who fish and eat from Ontario.
PFAS chemicals should really be what we're worrying about. They never break down, they're highly carcinogenic, and they're used in a lot of plastics.
Kinda what I meant by plastics
Yeah, that was a bit odd lol. I assume the last article the artist read before drawing this comic would have been about that, and it was pretty fresh in their memory.
