A study of Chinese research has now published striking findings showing without a doubt that BPA the chemical that is ubiquitous in all our plastics that is needed to make the bottle harder does in fact have estrogen like effects and makes reproduction harder by bringing down sperm count in men! This chemical is so common in everyday use that its all around us and its literally impossible to stay away from it. IT is even in our oceans thanks to the waste that is discarded there. To give you an idea of the magnitude of the effects of this chemical, you should know that in response to this study the Chinese government is contemplating going ease on the one child per family law! Some researchers say that the effect of this chemical will be slow long lasting that one day we will be worrying about under population rather than over population of the planet! To me it just seems like the horrific scenario show in the movie Children of Men is going to become a reality if all this is true!
