New York sued 3M, DuPont and other companies on Thursday for causing a public nuisance by selling "forever chemicals" that they knew were toxic for use in consumer products. The state's attorney general, Letitia James, accused the companies of hiding the chemicals' environmental and health risks from consumers for decades, even as they began phasing out some of the chemicals, which are known as Pfas. Other defendants include Chemours, Corteva and EIDP, which were part of DuPont before being spun off. The lawsuit was filed in a state court in Albany, which is New York's capital.
