There has been a few studies (Ivory Coast, Brazil, Africa, etc) that has tied that there is an inverse relationship between the level of fertility and pollution. As pollution increases, fertility goes down.
The effect on men is to lower the spermatozoids' count, and in women could induce a higher risk of loosing the fetus.
