(Reuters) – U.S. industrial conglomerate 3M Co and the city of Stuart, Florida has jointly filed a motion to delay the trial of a “bellwether” PFAS case, according to a court filing late on Sunday.
PFAS, the “forever chemicals” used in anything from cell phones to semiconductors, have been linked to cancers, heart problems and low birth weights.
