Maybe 10 years ago I took my kids to the museum of Natural history in Wash DC. I was disturbed to see that it was full of politically correct envirowackoism and they had an exhibit devoted to Rachel Carson (Silent Spring, DDT etc). I was explaining to my kids how this woman was responsible for the deaths of millions of people by vilifying a chemical that reduced malaria cases by <90% and that was essentially harmless to humans. The look on the faces of other parents and kids who overheard me was priceless.
Nice....
As the commercial goes, "Bad Andy, Good Pizza!"
I dont know what "study after study" this article is refering to, but I ran a Pubmed seach and found some studies saying otherwise.
