You’d have to show that you were harmed and that Dow was the cause-in-fact of your cancer.

The state has standing because they’re probably suing under a theory of strict liability under a toxic tort / nuisance theory.

Thank you for posting this. There are so many toxic chemicals in our water in NJ. You can search your zip code on EWG's website (link below) to see how contaminated your water is. You don't need to pay or give them your email address. After years of spending money on refrigerator filters, I learned that my filter wasn't filtering out most of these toxins. I emailed my refrigerator company and they sent me a list of what their filters filter from water. I now use bottled water for drinking and cooking. EWG also will show you which filters work for filtering out toxins in your water. It's alarming.

Here is the link.

Fuck, I’m going to be drinking bottled water from now on.

Does Brita help at all at filtering out containments in the water?
