Possible Shrinkage of Human Penises Due to Pollution

Environmental Scientist Warn About the Possible Shrinkage of Human Penises Due to Pollution

By Victor Omondi

If you require a different reason to care about the climate crisis, it has been discovered that pollution is causing human penises to shrink.

Dr. Shanna Swan, a leading epidemiologist, and environmental scientist has published a book that assesses the relationship between industrial chemicals and penile length.

According to Dr. Swan’s book, Count Down, our modern world is changing humans’ reproductive development and threatening the future of our species.

As outlined in the book, higher rates of erectile dysfunction, fertility decline, and growing numbers of babies born with small penises are caused by pollution. Although the headline fact about shrinkage may sound like a laughing matter, the research paints a bare portrait of humanity’s longevity and ability to survive.

“In some parts of the world, the average twenty-something today is less fertile than her grandmother was at 35,” Dr. Swan writes, calling the situation a “global existential crisis” in the book.

The book also highlights how humans meet three of the five possible criteria used to describe whether or not a species is endangered.

As stated in Dr. Swan’s research, this disruption is caused by phthalates, chemicals used in plastic manufacturing, which can affect the production of the endocrine hormone.

This group of chemicals can be found in toys, food packaging, detergents, and cosmetics. They are also used to help increase the flexibility of a substance. However, Dr. Swan believes that these substances are radically harming human development.

“Babies are now entering the world already contaminated with chemicals because of the substances they absorb in the womb,” she says. More of Dr. Swan’s current work has concentrated on the impacts of phthalates, originally looking at phthalate syndrome in rats.

Dr. Swan has authored papers on how these chemicals can be transferred from parents and their offspring, the effect on female sexual desire, and currently on penile length.

Nevertheless, there is some good news. Since the creation of the European Environment Agency, European citizens are exposed to 41 percent less particulate pollution than we were twenty years ago.

There is still hope for the future and humanity’s fertility if pollution preventive measures are properly implemented.
