What DDT is used for?

Answer 1

DDT was used to spray fruits (its a pesticide) to keep bugs away, etc. Eagles (among other animals) ate this fruit or ate other animals who had eaten the fruit, thus the poison was transmitted. When the birds laid eggs, the shells of these eggs were very thin which caused the unhatched chicks to die. After a period of time, eagles became endangered and a law was passed, because not only is DDT harmful to animals but to humans as well. Think of THAT when you're biting into that red, artificially grown apple-yum!!!!

DDT was used primarily for controlling malarial mosquitoes,However environmental extremist groups manipulated data and wildly exaggerated their claims to push for a worldwide ban on DDT - which is, to this day,still the most effective weapon against malarial mosquitoes. The Environmental Protection Agency held extensive hearings and these hearings concluded that DDT should not be banned. A few months after the hearings ended, EPA administrator William Ruckleshaus over-ruled his own agency and banned DDT anyway, in what he later admitted was a "political" decision. Threats to withhold American foreign aid swiftly spread the ban across the world..

The resulting explosion of mosquito-borne malaria in Africa alone has claimed over sixty million lives. This was not a gradual process - a surge of infection and death happened almost immediately. The use of DDT reduces the spread of mosquito-borne malaria by 80-90%, so its discontinuation quickly produced an explosion of crippling and fatal illness claiming the lives of over 2 million people per year rather than the 10,000 per year when DDT was in use.

The same environmental movement which has been falsifying data, suppressing dissent, and reading tea leaves to support the global-warming fraud has studiously ignored this blood-drenched "hockey stick" for decades. Environmentalist have murdered more people than Hitler,Stalin or any other group in history...
