"DDT facts
and myths have been part of our shared environmental consciousness for
two generations. Most of our beliefs about DDT, a powerful insecticide
long-banned by most countries, came from Rachel Carson’s best selling book, Silent Spring, published over 50 years ago."
Again, massive application to farmland is not ever going to be considered – but careful use to control mosquitos? Sure.
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
