> sperm counts in the western world have been declining precipitously since 1990. I'd bet that glyphosate has something to do with this

Free porn on internet looks like a simpler explanation. Or maybe we could speculate that everybody touching plastic keyboards for many hours a day can't be healthy.

Poor countries in Africa and Asia doing extensive and not-so-regulated agriculture should have an even bigger decrease in sperm count if pesticides are the only reason. It pours Glyphosate there. Probably is a combination of many factors.
