Must be before my time.
What is that shit? |
DDT was a very popular insecticide used primarily to kill the Anopheles mosquito which carries the maleria virus. The maleria virus has killed 1/2 of the people that have ever lived. DDT was later found to cuase cancer and many other fun things. :(

sick man.....really sick.

Actually contrary to popular belief there is actually no scientific evidence what-so-ever that DDT causes cancer or any other ill-effects. It may, but no studies have been done.
In the 70's there was a huge uproar of environmentalism.. one of their primary targets was industrial chemicals etc. DDT was in such large usage that they creasted mass histeria about ill-effects.. such as cancer.. with absolutely no backing. However, the up-roar was so large that the U.S government passed a bill banning the use of DDT. This is very unfortunate because, while not a huge problem in North America, Malaerea is one of the worlds most serious viruses which claims millions of lives annually. Without U.S funding and support of DDT in Malaerea infested countries in Africa a lot of people are dying. |

While it is unfortunate that many people die due to maleria, we should be thankful that it does exist. If not for maleria the earth would be even more overpolulated than it is now. I contracted maleria myself when I was nine, and while its not fun, its not the worst way to die. I did not receive treatment and I survived. On a brighter note, some africans have evolved a defense mechanism against maleria: sickle cell anemia. |
that's a great pic. :1orglaugh
