There's no question plastic pollution is everywhere. Studies have shown that microplastics are lodged in the lungs and bloodstreams of people and animals. Living things breathe in and eat large amounts of plastic microparticles daily.

And now, a new report reveals that men may have even more to worry about. Researchers at the University of New Mexico have discovered "significant concentrations" of microplastics in the testicles of both dogs and humans.
