GREENPEACE REPORT REVEALS THE IMPACT OF TOXIC CHEMICALS ON REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH — Here’s a bit of bad news. Greenpeace released today a report called “Fragile: Our Reproductive Health and Chemical Exposure” which said that “falling sperm counts, rising infertility, and genital abnormalities in babies could all result from exposure to hazardous man-made chemicals used in perfumes, carpets, electronics, clothing, and a host of other consumer goods.”
The report, which can be downloaded here, presents evidence “from peer-reviewed scientific studies undertaken in the past several years and establishes the link between the decline in human reproductive health and our exposure to hazardous chemicals. Together, the studies show for the first time a comprehensive picture of an increase in reproductive health disorders, mirroring the rising presence in our lives of man-made chemicals.”
“The link between exposure to man-made chemicals and reproductive disorders in humans, as indicated by a growing body of scientific evidence cited in the report, is extremely disturbing, especially if you take into account that many man-made chemicals, often with hazardous properties, are produced and used human beings every day around the world.” said Greenpeace Southeast Asia Toxics Campaigner Beau Baconguis.
