Our #valueengineering report explains how to balance cost & value in #plumbing systems to avoid tradeoffs in safety, health, durability, resilience, & sustainability. buff.ly/44oWTaw
Thank you to our partners at @AIA_NEI, who invited us to present on the health risks posed by #microplastics in #plumbing. Learn more & request a free presentation buff.ly/4av8IyH
In 1959 we discarded 500 million tons of #plastic (that's the tiny truck). Today we throw out over 700X more (the HUGE truck). Did you know construction is the 2nd-largest source of #plasticpollution, behind only packaging? buff.ly/4aimWlY
Some health risks from substances that #plasticpipes put into #drinkingwater are are well known, including chemicals that disrupt the endocrine system & #microplastics that trigger inflammation & even cell death. Is #plastic the next #asbestos? buff.ly/3xjHpsa
Why are #microplastics leaching into water from #plasticpipes a problem? 1) Small size lets them move easily into our bodies 2) High surface area helps them bond with harmful substances including chemicals & heavy metals buff.ly/4av8IyH
It’s well known that VOC off-gassing degrades indoor air quality. It's a useful analogy for the ways of #valueengineering of #plumbing may similarly impact occupant health. Learn why > buff.ly/3TQNRyt
According to @CUSPUK, research reveals increasing use of #plastics in #plumbing & other building applications increases fire risk because of plastic's combustibility & tendency to release toxic smoke/chemicals when it burns buff.ly/4cG3Yre
Research finds 16,000 chemicals in #plastics, including 4,200 “chemicals of concern” that can leach into #drinkingwater, soil & food. Most are not covered by NSF/ANSI 61. How many come from #plasticpipes? buff.ly/49Z4HlC
Let's talk about #valueengineering of #plumbing: “Most value engineering efforts deliver very little value and no engineering.” What VE issues apply to pipes? How should you ensure system integrity? Our new report looks at this important issue safepipingmatters.org/value-engineer…
Discussing environmental & health impacts of #plastic, @EIA_News's Christina Dixon tells the BBC there's "no transparency" on 13,000 chemicals in #plastic products, including #plasticpipe. Many have unknown health effects & are not covered by NSF/ANSI61. buff.ly/3ImyhVG
It’s @GlbRecyclingDay 🌍♻️ Below are four reasons recycled copper is one of our #RecyclingHeroes 🦸🏼♀️ 🌿 Fewer water pipes in landfills 🌿 Contributes to the circular economy 🌿 Reduces the need for mining new ore 🌿 Preserves natural habitats #RecycledCopper #ChooseCopper
Microplastic pollution poses health risks to the gut, lungs, brain, nervous, & reproductive systems. Learn how #plasticpipes can shed these tiny particles into #drinkingwater & increase the spread of toxins & pathogens. buff.ly/4av8IyH
Nice resource from Healthy Materials Lab with simple guidance on how to deal with various types of plastic. buff.ly/3SYEdZV
Liability for #microplastics will grow as research reveals health impacts & contamination sources, including #plasticpipes. Our report (buff.ly/3sRFSb2) outlines what’s known. This article by Catherine Boston & Megan Baroni gives legal context. buff.ly/3TgjYqQ
New research shows risks of #plastic combustion. "Due to the known formation & toxicity of combustion-derived polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)...classifying burnt plastic as hazardous waste may be warranted." This includes pyrolized #plasticpipes. buff.ly/49OWhg2
Check this post by Chuck Vass from IFS Insulation Firestop Services. The comments show how often #plumbing penetrations get done wrong. Our report (download at buff.ly/43vRD3w) offers guidance buff.ly/3UVOKYw
March 4 is #WorldEngineeringDay. From designing water treatment facilities to solving water quality issues, engineers play a vital role in protecting public health and ensuring a sustainable future. Let's celebrate the brilliant engineers within our AWWA community!
“Chemical-laced microplastic particles can now be found commonly in plants and in the bodies of animals—including humans… [and] health issues linked to thousands of chemical components commonly found in plastic are already well established.”
“Chemical-laced microplastic particles can now be found commonly in plants and in the bodies of animals—including humans… [and] health issues linked to thousands of chemical components commonly found in plastic are already well established.”
Research from ecoinvent shows non-circular #plastic building materials such as #plasticpipe have higher CO2 emissions than the industry previously revealed. Good summary in this post. buff.ly/49TOIoa
Video explainer on the whens & whys of #leadpipe use for #plumbing from Minute Earth & The Water Main… Good lessons on the importance of safe piping materials. buff.ly/47FLvHx

I might find a way to save you $10mm in 5 mins. So do I get paid for the 5 mins, or for the value I just created? I don't sell time, I sell expertise and architectural services. I also sell liability protection, via my stamp. The value of what I do isn't always directly tied to…
When we respond to emergencies and disasters, often leaders act on our advice, stop the exposures, and expedite the recovery. Other times they don’t…. and make things worse. If you knew how things actually worked, you’d be surprised.
