What is true is that is cirriculum at every university here in the US. Ivy League schools, Duke, Ohio State. Not exactly junk science. Is it true, it is fact. DDT is a maligant pesticide that can stick around in water for decades. Any pond person with any kind of conscience would know this.
Americans were ingesting this daily. Residue from produce, contaminated water supplies, meat and fish. If anyone disputes this ask any Freshman taking chemistry or biology, or ask the local university. And yes, it did accumulate until saturation. Undisputed fact by world experts.
I heard the malaria comment how many times now? It was the wrong or is the wrong chemical to use because of it's staying power and environmentally destructive abilities. How many Americans are dying from Malaria today with DDT banned? It was scientic ignorance that put the poison out there and then the same old we have to make a buck, screw the environment and people's health for now. Cigarette companies made trillions and still are dealing death. Used to be chic to smoke. All the movie stars did, tv commericials were about as misleading as you can get to bring in new addiction victims. Cancer sticks, laden with toxics and addictive chemicals. But hey, they have to make a buck. Luckily for Americans all these buck makers are taking thier act to third world countries. Have some DDT, then smoke a few packs, Maybe that 2 year old chain smoker got a double dose from Mom's breast milk and that three pack a day habit. My grandma was a 4 pack a day Pall Mall smoker. She paid the ultimate price for someone has to make a buck. Now the worm has turned, commercials show the grim reaper giving out free samples. And the corporations keep making those bucks.
Anyone want to make a friendly wager what I say about DDT is fact? I'm up for that.
