I am reading Life Without Plastic by Chantal Plamondon and Jay Sinha and it is a horror show of the toxic effects of plastic. I’ll give a review after I finish it but one part stood out. A study in 2005 by Dr. Shanna Swan showed that baby boys whose mothers were exposed to certain plastics show signs of demasculinization. That means they had a smaller penis size and indistinct scrotums. How is this not classified as a state of emergency? We should be halting the production of these plastics and warning the population. But instead, we carry on in a haze of ignorance because we are not informed. We need to be informed! This is an issue I feel passionate about since I’m rather fond of the aforementioned phallus. Penis size is important.
