Analysis of samples from remote parts of Tibet and Antarctica revealed that some of these chemicals remain in the atmosphere despite their production being phased out by manufacturers. Due to natural processes, such as the water cycle and wind patterns, the chemicals were observed continuously cycling through the atmosphere and environment, according to the Weather Network.
And it was added that the levels at these remote locations “often exceed” the recommended limit of some chemicals as outlined by the U.S. EPA drinking water health advisory. Rainwater in the remote regions often exceeded limits for some chemicals outlined by the Denmark drinking water advisory, which is one of the strictest drinking water regulations globally.
