[A pesticide is any substance or mixture of substances intended for preventing, destroying, repelling or mitigating any pest] from wiki: DDT is one of the most well-known synthetic pesticides. It is a chemical with a long, unique, and controversial history. In 1962, Silent Spring by American biologist Rachel Carson was published. The book catalogued the environmental impacts of the indiscriminate spraying of DDT in the US and questioned the logic of releasing large amounts of chemicals into the environment without fully understanding their effects on ecology or human health. The book suggested that DDT and other pesticides may cause cancer and that their agricultural use was a threat to wildlife, particularly birds. Its publication was one of the signature events in the birth of the environmental movement, and resulted in a large public outcry that eventually led to DDT being banned in the US in 1972.[4] DDT was subsequently banned for agricultural use worldwide under the Stockholm Convention, but its limited use in disease vector control continues to this day and remains controversial -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 199.44.250.220
