The Climate Crisis is a Reproductive Issue

<p>In this episode, Kelley Dennings with the Center for Biological Diversity speaks on the intersection of environmental and reproductive justice! </p>

<p>“Toxic chemicals can disrupt fertility and sperm counts and make it harder to avoid unplanned pregnancies due to changes in your menstrual cycle, causing at least the fertility awareness based method to be problematic, but other forms of birth control sometimes too can become unreliable. Environmental harm can cause high risk pregnancies, miscarriages, birth defects, preterm birth, low birth weight and can lead to breast cancer or difficulty breast and chest feeding.”</p>
