The Australian Drinking Water Map
The Australian Drinking Water Map is an informative resource created by volunteers from Friends of the Earth Australia. It compiles over a decade of data on water contaminants across the country, making this information easily accessible. The map aims to raise awareness of disinfection byproducts and other major contaminants in drinking water, helping users understand water quality issues in various regions.
The Australian PFAS Chemicals Map
The Australian PFAS Chemicals Map highlights the widespread presence of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in the Australian environment. Often used in products like firefighting foam and non-stick cookware, these harmful chemicals are found in waterways, sediments, and even homes. Despite links to health issues, PFAS remain in use in Australia.
