Omschrijving
Scientists around the world are finding alarming changes in human reproduction and health.
-- Men's sperm counts have dropped by 50% in 50 years
-- Testicular, prostate, and breast cancers are on the rise worldwide
-- Males of certain animal species, like the Florida alligator, are showing signs of feminization
The prime suspect? Increased exposure to chemicals which can mimic the female hormone estrogen.
Chemicals like DDT and PCB have become soaked into our environment. Only now is the full impact of their use coming to light. Responsible for genital abnormalities and cancers across a wide range of species, these hormone-disrupting chemicals pose a threat to our very survival.
