Sperm counts are on track to hit zero by 2045. That means the median male will have no viable sperm in 19 years. Half of all men will be functionally infertile. Billionaire investor Jeremy Grantham, who has spent 27 years researching environmental toxicity, says this is the most underreported crisis in human history, and nobody wants to talk about it. Steven opens the conversation with his own story. He and his partner are trying to have a baby. It hasn't been straightforward. Friends of his have spent years struggling to conceive. He has started telling people his age to freeze eggs and sperm as a precaution. He is 33 years old and already past his peak fertility. Jeremy walks through the timeline. In hunter-gatherer days, men had roughly 180 million sperm per millilitre. By 1970, when academics first measured it, the count had dropped to about 100 million. Today, the average is 35 million. The threshold for conceiving without difficulty is roughly 45 million, which was crossed about 15 to 20 years ago. That is why 17% of young couples now need help getting pregnant, up from effectively zero a generation ago. At the current rate of decline, the median sperm count will reach zero by 2045. The causes are endocrine-disrupting chemicals embedded in everyday life. Phthalates in cosmetics, shampoos, and food packaging lower testosterone production in male fetuses during the first trimester, permanently stunting reproductive capacity before birth. BPAs in plastics and tin can linings flood the male body with synthetic estrogen signals. PFAs (forever chemicals) in nonstick pans, waterproof jackets, and stain-resistant carpets accumulate in human blood and directly reduce sperm volume. Microplastics have been found in 100% of human testicular tissue tested. And atrazine, the second most widely used herbicide in America, chemically castrated male frogs in a peer-reviewed study, turning 10% of them into fully functional females capable of laying eggs.

Let's talk about the chronic baby bust. I've been hearing a lot in the news. I think there was some articles that actually came out this week in the New York Times that talked about the decline in fertility rates and how young couples like

me, I'm in a you know, I'm I'm engaged to a young woman who and me me and her are trying to have a child now. Um, it's not not always a straight line to having a child.

Yeah, I think you're kind of sold the idea that it is that you just have sex without a condom and then a baby appears, but um lots of young families and lots of my friends who are trying to have kids have gone for couple of years trying and

struggling to to conceive. So much so that after doing this podcast, I started telling some of my friends that actually it's a good idea to start freezing your eggs, embryos, because if it is going to get increasingly harder, then there might need

to be um medical interventions, IVF um etc. for me and my friends. If we are if we you know, if we want to have families, but the the problem is as well at like 33 years old, um if you look at

the data, you're not at your peak necessarily in terms of fertility. You're somewhere coming down the slope as a man. Um and but also as a woman. Um so you're kind of fighting time a little bit

it feels like. Yeah, you are. And I think my partner feels the same way that we wish we were told a little bit earlier about family planning.

And then I hear that about this these fertility issues that apparently have been caused by toxins and the sort of chemicals in our environment. You have spent a long time thinking, writing, talking about this.

>> I guess the first question is why? Why is a guy that's known for managing billions and billions and billions of hundreds of billions of dollars talking about fertility and this sort of baby bust? 27 years ago with the foundation, we were committed to

start thinking about everything to do with the climate. And and you're moving in the right circle then because the next thing is we started to worry about the cataclysmic decline in insects. I don't know if you're aware of this, but insects

appear to have dropped in biomass, the weight of the flying insects, by 50 to 75%. >> In the last 60-70 years. And E.O. Wilson, the famous ant man, he believed that you know,

nature could the loss of humans easily, effortlessly, but it could not handle the loss of of insects. The insects are in in the sense, he felt, and and his fellow experts, he represented them as thinking the same way, that the insects are the bedrock of And

if they start to go out of business, then the birds who feed on on them and the amphibians, they start to decline, which they have done, also catastrophically. One thing leads to another, and the beetles are no longer uh recycling the forest floor, and eventually things won't

grow, and no one to uh fertilize the plants, and the damage spreads, and he felt that eventually loss of insects would lead to a more or less complete failure of nature, and and we would inherit a planet that was no longer conducive to humans.

We noticed that some of the same effects are felt uh by humans. And uh a report came out, Shanna Swan and Hagai Levine, I think it finished in 2011, and uh it made the case that uh sperm count had been dropping, had

almost halved since the first reports, academic reports, in 1970. So, I immediately said, "This has the feeling of something that is really We got to study the data." And the results came out suggesting that the decline rate was accelerating.
