new Birth control method
https://www.theguardian.com/commenti...erin-brokovich
quote: A new book called Countdown, by Shanna Swan, an environmental and reproductive epidemiologist at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York, finds that sperm counts have dropped almost 60% since 1973. Following the trajectory we are on, Swan’s research suggests sperm counts could reach zero by 2045. Zero. Let that sink in. That would mean no babies. No reproduction. No more humans. Forgive me for asking: why isn’t the UN calling an emergency meeting on this right now?
The chemicals to blame for this crisis are found in everything from plastic containers and food wrapping, to waterproof clothes and fragrances in cleaning products, to soaps and shampoos, to electronics and carpeting. Some of them, called PFAS, are known as “forever chemicals”, because they don’t breakdown in the environment or the human body. They just accumulate and accumulate – doing more and more damage, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day. Now, it seems, humanity is reaching a breaking point.
The Anthropocene is upon us in a myriad of different directions

You have railed about too many humans and their evils, this should make you happy.

Why? Are you afraid of being left all alone in this world?

I did not see the scientific study, or is this just a causal relationship - like vaccinations.

The grip of a persons handshake was quantifiable and going down as well. Attitude I suspect has done more harm than anything, a man in 1960 might have several women and his sperm count and testosterone levels would be 5 times that of today's man. Call it the cucking of men.
