We've had disgustingly wet Sumemr-less years so far
anyway, a poster above brought up garbage about DDT, proving this is all about political bias.
If folk actually bothered to check the facts about DDT, rather than listen to corporate-sponsored places like JunkScience, they'd know that DDT was never banned for use against malaria in Africa, but that it's no damn use against malaria in the way the shills bleat about it (the real fact is the agro chem companies want ot sell it in vast bulk again, and THAT is where the toxicity problem does arise, cause the cretins used it in such enormous volumes for crops, especially cash crops)
.
Resistance to DDT was already showing by 1957. Thus it's only useful for safeguarding houses (nets and wlal sprays), or by very well integrated massive public health schemes in which DDT is only one part and only a short term one at that.
If you doubt me, go check with the W.H.O rather than JunkScience who are funded by Exxon and tobacco companies (you can check that you know..and tobacco companies are about the worst evil we've seen as their product's death toll is greater than Hitler, Stalin and Mao's combined).
To stop malaria, you need a vaccine, a very dman difficult thing to do, or improve the stability of thos enations so they can work on major public systems to drain marshes, build more hospitals etc.
Yes, FOLLOW TH EMONEY!! To Exxona nd others who'se wealth vastly outweights that of the environmental lobby which you blatantly ignore ;)
One Exxon chief left with a $400 million severance package, if that doens't wake you up to who owns you, your vote, and your countries, nothing will.
meh, folk should stick to art.
