Our family and community are suffering and dying from [malaria], and too many Europeans and environmentalists only talk about protecting the environment, says 34-year old Ugandan businesswoman with malaria.
Mosquitoes aren't the only death-dealing creatures dear to the hearts of leftists. Wolves, cougers, bears, criminals and Tyrants -- make your own list.

While this article doesn't really get into debunking the junk science upon which Kyoto is based (it's not the intent of the article), it does provide a great summary of a book that joins so many others that poke holes in the whole eco-environmentalist movement.
We are hearing more stories of the harm done by these do-gooders who are ensuring the survival of every species on earth - except man.
When we allow the idiocy of banning effective pesticides like DDT on the basis of junk science, I think we need to wonder who is the crazier - those of us who know better and allow this nonsense to go on; or the eco-environmentalists who, allegedly, believe the crap they promote?
In addition to malaria, we also have the spread of these other wonderful diseases to thank the eco-environmentalists for:
Yellow fever
Nile Fever
Equine Encephalitis
Aren't 2 - 3 million deaths of children to malaria each year enough to make us say 'enough!'?

Banning DDT isn't the only way that mosquitoes thrive as a result of green policies. The Wetlands Protection Act protects almost any mud puddle on public or private land. These filthy mosquito breeders have caused the population of "flying hypodermic needles" to soar.
