You are right in that the environmentalists have succeeded in making folks think that environmental "problems" will never be solved. Gives lots of leftys jobs, headlines and money forever. Otherwise, most of them would have to get real jobs or sponge off Daddy and Mommy.

Discovered by accident, DDT became one of the greatest public health tools of the 20th century.

And the bastard Ruckelshaus at the EPA condemned millions of people to die on his whim by unilaterally banning its use for a public policy reason, putting himself right up there with Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot.

I disagree with this and mostly all of the comments on this thread. Thanks for all the updates, but I have little in common with the take on most of the articles. You can take me off your ping list. Thanks.

"I disagree with this and mostly all of the comments on this thread."

Facts are inconvenient things, aren't they?

Can you explain just what you disagree with?
