Environmental pollution is one of the causes of the deterioration of the planet and of climate change due to global warming, an effect that also deteriorates human life in various aspects, including sexuality.
According to a scientific study by Dr. Shanna Swan, published in her book Countdown: the future of humanity, According to a scientist, pollution is causing human penises to shrink.
Swan, professor of environmental medicine and public health at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, studied in his book the relationship between industrial chemicals and penis length.

Environmental pollution affects sexuality
Dr. Shanna Swan’s book argues that reproductive development in humans is currently impaired, something that threatens the future of our species.
In his research, scientist exposes how pollution is causing erectile dysfunction rates to rise, a decline in fertility and an increasing number of babies born with small penises.
the author paints a grim portrait of humanity’s longevity and survival.
“In some parts of the world, the average young man in his 20s is less fertile today than his grandmother was at the age of 35,” says Swan, who describes the situation in the book as “global existential crisis”.

“The chemicals in our environment and unhealthy lifestyle practices in our modern world are upsetting the hormone balance, causing varying degrees of reproductive havoc.” the author wrote.
According to the book, humans meet three of the five possible criteria used to define whether a species is endangered or not. “It only takes one to be satisfied with the worst,” wrote the researcher.
Eggplants are essential for a healthy diet, one of the recommendations for maintaining optimal sexuality.
How Pollution Affects Fertility
According to the survey by. Swan, this alteration is caused by phthalates, chemicals used in the manufacture of plastics, which can affect the production of endocrine hormones.
This group of chemicals can be found in toys, food packaging, detergents, cosmetics, and many other products. And, according to Dr. Swan, these substances are radically damaging human development.
“Babies come into the world already contaminated by the substances they absorb in the womb”, it is stated. Much of Swan’s work has focused on the effects of phthalates, initially studying the syndrome this substance generates in rats.
The derivatives of plastic alter the genetics of man with consequences on sexuality.
However, in the year 2000 there was a breakthrough in this field and it was possible to measure low doses of phthalates in humans.
Swan has since specialized and is the author of articles on how these chemicals can be passed between parents and their offspring, the impact on female sexual desire and, more recently, in the length of the penis.
In one of his most famous studies, in 2017, he looked at the intersection of sperm count and contamination.
After studying 185 studies involving nearly 45,000 healthy men, Dr. Swan and his team concluded that sperm counts among men in Western countries had decreased by 59% between 1973 and 2011.
