Science is a blessing as well a curse. Pollution is a deadly byproduct of science and technological advancement as it is produced by various creations of science.

Pollution can lead to various health problems and it could be deadly for some people with medical problems. Recent study has shown that pollution has adverse effect on chances of women becoming a mother.

Researchers studied the effect of diesel exhaust particles on fertilized eggs in laboratory. It was found that diesel fumes decreased the cell population of embryos causing developmental problems which increased risk of miscarriage.
