New study by Dr Hagay Levin, review about 185 studies that were published between 1971 and  2011, shows that Sperm Quality in in western world is in decline in last 40 years.
The Study was done in the Hebrew University of Jerusalem with the Haddasa Hospital, and the Mount Sinai hospital in New York.
The results show a 52.4% decline in sperm concentration and 59.3% decline in total sperm count in men from North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand  While in South America, Asia and Africa, there was no significant decline (much less studies are available on these regions).
The researchers say that low sperm quality have been linked with exposure to chemicals used in pesticides and plastics, obesity, smoking, stress, diet, and even watching too much TV.

Since Dr Hagay Levin do not say any thing about EMF radiation exposure and low sperm quality I will bring several studies that do:

Israeli media - New Israeli study shows sperm damage because of cell phones' radiation

The study (Update 07/2019 - https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1472648315003004 ) shows that people how use the cellphone for more than one our, use it while charging it, or hold it next to their groin have a higher risk or to have damage sperm.
The study was done by the Technion(Israel Technical Institute in Haifa)  Faculty of Medicine and the  Carmel medical center in Haifa, and included 106 men how visit the fertility clinic, filled in a questionnaire and did a sperm analysis.

As I showed before in my videos, smart phones emit RF radiation also in idle more (depending on operation system, applications and settings). This emission will cause RF exposure to the body. I recommend turning off 3g/4g data, WIFI and Bluetooth to eliminate this emission. A nice bonus will be that the battery will last much longer.
