Man Made Chemicals and Male Infertility
Nov 7th, 2008 by staff entry
The CBC recently broadcast a documentary entitled The Disappearing Male which explored the toxic threat to the male reproductive system, specifically looking at the chemicals we are regularly exposed to.
In 20 industrialized nations, the birth of baby boys has declined every year for the last 30 years. More than 90,000 man made chemicals have been developed in the last 60 years. Only 15 percent of these have been tested to understand the possible impact they could have on humans. These are just a few of the disturbing points that are examined in this documentary.
You can view the complete documentary online.
The site also has a number of useful links to resources on this topic. For example, The Nature of Things has a little interactive home layout which shows you where potential chemical dangers lurk in your home.
This documentary provides more evidence that the products we are exposed to daily are having an effect on our lives and it is why we offer the BPA and phthalate free products we do on Go Green InStages.com.
