==Widespread Infertility==

* [[Edward Llewellyn]]. The Bright Companion (1980) (in the last century, women became infertile because of a birth control; society collapsed; now fertile women are rare)
* [[Stephanie Smith]] (pollution has caused people's babies are increasingly mutated, weird - maybe a new species?)
