Men’s sperm have been
decreasing in number and getting worse at swimming for some time now—and, at
least in the United States and Europe, new research says it’s getting worse.
Daniel Noah Halpern writes, “A strange thing has
happened to men over the past few decades: We’ve become increasingly infertile,
so much so that within a generation we may lose the ability to reproduce
entirely. Men are doomed.
Everybody knows this. We’re obviously all doomed, the women too, everybody in
general, just a waiting game until one or another of the stupid things our
stupid species is up to finally gets us. But as it turns out, no surprise: men
first. Second instance of no surprise: We’re going to take the women down with
us.”
In July of 2017 the BBC
reported that, “Humans could become extinct if
sperm counts in men continue to fall at current rates.”
Researchers assessing the results of nearly 200 studies say sperm counts among
men from North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, seem to have halved in less than 40 years. Dr Hagai Levine, an
epidemiologist, told the BBC that if the trend continued humans would become
extinct.
“If we will not change the
ways that we are living and the environment and the chemicals that we are
exposed to, I am very worried about what will happen in the future,” Levine
said. “Eventually we may have a problem, and with reproduction in general, and
it may be the extinction of the human species.
Fertility
clinics report that the number of healthy sperm produced by clients is dropping
almost 2 per cent each year. The decline in quality has been seen among sperm
donors as well as those seeking fertility treatment. Sperm counts in men from
America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand have dropped by more than 50 percent
in less than 40 years.
Research scientists say
that the rate of decline is not slowing. Both findings — in
a meta-analysis bringing together various studies — pointed to a potential
decline in male health and fertility.
“This
study is an urgent wake-up call for researchers and health authorities around
the world to investigate the causes of the sharp ongoing drop in sperm count,”
said Hagai Levine, who co-led the work at the Hebrew University-Hadassah Braun
School of Public Health and Community Medicine in Jerusalem.
Falling sperm counts have
previously been linked to various factors such as exposure to certain chemicals and pesticides, smoking,
stress and obesity. This suggests measures of sperm quality may reflect the
impact of modern living on male health and act as a “canary in the coal mine”
signaling broader health risks.
The
results, published in the journal Human Reproduction Update, showed a 52.4
percent decline in sperm concentration and a 59.3 percent decline in total
sperm count among North American, European, Australian and New Zealand men.
Two years after these studies
and devastating reports were released we read in The Guardian,
“Sales of synthetic chemicals will double over the next 12 years with alarming
implications for health and the environment, according to a global study that
highlights government failures to rein in the industry behind plastics,
pesticides and cosmetics. The fastest growth was in construction materials,
electronics, textiles and lead batteries. More and more additives are also
being used to make plastics smoother or more durable.
Depending
on the chemical and degree of exposure, the risks can include cancer, chronic
kidney disease and congenital anomalies.” They forgot to say all this is
catastrophic in terms of men’s sperm counts.
Global
chemical production has almost doubled since 2000. Despite the negative
effects, humanity is increasingly dependent on synthetic chemicals. According
to the UN, output will grow seven times faster than the global population
between 1990 and 2030.
A Complete Mystery?
Yet we read headlines, ‘The
U.S. fertility rate has taken a nose dive and why is a complete mystery.’ The
latest figures show a record low birth rate last
year, for the second straight year in a row. The trouble
is, researchers aren’t sure why. In 2017, there were a
mere 60.2 births per 1,000 women of childbearing age (ages
15-44). That means the overall fertility rate dropped 2% from 2016. This is
the lowest level since 1978.
These figures come from the National Center for Health Statistics.
It is
only a mystery to those who want it to be a mystery. By the time they figure it
out we will all be dead. We are not winning any awards in the intelligence
department when it comes to what is happening here on earth. There is no doubt
that we are in the midst of very dangerous times. We are on track to void our
species entirely, and with us most of life on earth yet we squabble about the
most petty things.
Are Men Essential?
Men
will continue to be essential to the survival of the species so if they fail,
if they lose their sperm, that’s the end of us. Sure some think that modern
medicine will save the day with innovation. A new technology known as
IVG—in vitro gametogenesis—is showing promise at turning embryonic stem
cells into sperm. In 2016, Japanese scientists created baby mice by fertilizing
normal mouse eggs with sperm created via IVG. The stem cells in question were
taken from female mice. There was no need for any males.
So
maybe we men are not going to be so essential, but when the entire financial
system collapse where will that leave expensive approaches to medicine? The
bells of doom are ringing but most only listen to the ring tones of the cell
phones every day. We don’t have to wait for an alien invasion, our fate as a
race seems already sealed.
This is all very depressing but we, as
individuals cannot let it get us down. Yes we live in the age of apocalypse and
there is little we can do about it. But we can do something about our
consciousness, we can love more and be more.
Final End
Meanwhile students globally
are protesting man-made global warming. Students are pleaded for their lives,
future and planet demanding tough action on climate change. Whoever is
organizing these young people are manipulating them, not informing them that
they are actually living on a cooling world, that
there are six horsemen of climate change and
all of them are cooling, that independent of coal and oil use we are still
polluting the planet forcing almost everyone to breathe toxic air, suffer
through increasing amounts of radiation in the environment and in medical clinics and hospitals, and even being
forced by governments and doctors to suffer injections of toxic chemicals
directly into the blood.
We
have psychopaths running the show here on our planet meaning world leadership
is full of crap, crashing our ship of life, on earth we fail type of story.
Even those who built the Stone Hedge in Georgia, that huge place of carved
stone that just dreams of when their will be only about 500,000 of us left.
That seems optimistic in terms of terminal sperm counts that are taking hold of
the future of our race.
However, none of this might
matter in a world on the brink of a new world war that could easily go nuclear,
which would provide for a much quicker end to the human race. And so many
of us are going to die of the cold, and lack of food, when the grand solar
minimum kicks in over the next two to three years. And who is going to survive
the end of MasterCard or Visa when the financial system goes up in smoke?
But
men’s sperm, such precious liquid that the future of the human race depends on.
Can our sperm just disappear off the planet leaving us stranded to just wait to
the end of our time? The end of human history.
No
matter which way we look at it we are going to witness a dramatic reduction of
the human flock. Certainly more will be made homeless as the next recession
dials us up and the banks steal even more of our wealth. But again our real
tears are for the disappearance of sperm. Our sperms are leaving us in mass and
they have been doing that for decades with little notice being taken.
We
can find mainstream conjecture about the why of our sperm loss and there is
medical truth in the below causes. When we look at the first two principle
causes we really need to look at why we have so much obesity and diabetes,
their underlying causes, and is anyone going to do anything to reverse the
worsening trends of these and other diseases? No, so down we go.
1) Obesity
2) Diabetes
3) Smoking
4) Alcohol
5) Drug Use
6) Hot Tubs and Saunas
7) Boxers vs. Briefs
Modern Medicine as a Cause
Just look at how many
millions modern medicine has killed in the last 19 years. Count
them! How come pharmaceutical companies are not on the main list of
causes? If so many millions perish from all the deadly pharmaceuticals dished
out by poison loving doctors and nurses how much is the industry contributing
to depression the sperm counts of men? They certainly are administering enough
radiation for their diagnostic tests.
