摘要

Exposure to synthetic chemicals occurs across species. These substances are often untested, highly persistent, and lack regulation. Together with climate change, they can cause population decline. Many act as endocrine-disrupting chemicals, interfering with hormones at low concentrations. Emerging pollutants, including microplastics and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, further contribute. Impacts include reduced fertility, fecundity, and even multigenerational harm. Cross-species evidence underscores the need for systemic approaches to protect biodiversity and planetary health.
