World’s Scariest Words: ‘I’m an Environmentalist and I’m Here to Help’
You’re using blogger Tim Lambert, one of the few political commenters who is unstable and unintentionally humorous enough to be made into a verb – as a source to prove your point?
Lambert and the general claims that DDT somehow, magically became ineffective at the same time the environmentalists began their Carson -led crusade are dissected here:
Tim Lambert often claims DDT has fallen into disfavour mostly because mosquitoes became resistant to it; the WHO report indicates that there were political and economic pressures but does not specifically mention DDT resistance as a factor.
WHO clearly states that environmentalists, not some sudden and magical ineffectiveness, are the main roadblock to saving lives in Africa.
And I’d love to see Lambert and his fans in the courts. They’re the types who would provide their own (unintentionally absurd) defense…
