The Estrogen Effect: Assault on the Male

Will environmental changes brought about by humans eventually destroy the potential for males of all species to reproduce? This Emmy Award-winning documentary explores that frightening possibility. Using sophisticated investigative techniques, scientists trace the ripple effect of estrogenic compounds in the environment. At first, we observe slight changes in the natural order, then witness the wider effects: seriously altered ecosytems and the disruption of fundamental life processes that result in reduced male reproduction. The dismal conclusion is that the process, unabated, may result in male sterility over time. A BBC Production. (53 minutes)
