> A lot of care goes into their disposal or recycle.

Are you aware of the usage of PFAS in textiles, food packaging, and waterproof-treated goods? I'm a little confused what you mean by care goes into their disposal. PFAS treatments on textiles for example are disposed of by pouring down a washing machine drain into municipal sewers and from there into natural waterways.

Because of the "forever", small amounts add up, perpetually and over time could become not-small amounts.
