Environmentalists and killing people


The esteemed Dr. Williams looks at the real world impact of environmentalist policies. For instance, because of the enviro-activist ban on DDT, millions of people, many of them African children, needlessly die each year of malaria. Recently, hundreds have died in the US of West Nile Virus, and still activists oppose any sort of insecticide spraying.

Williams quotes environmental activist Lynn Landes as saying, "West Nile may be a nasty experience for a very few, fatal for an exceedingly rare number, but as diseases go it's no big deal." Meanwhile, according to statistics from the Centers for Disease Control, 2,530 Americans have been infected with West Nile and 125 died, but to environmentalists that's "no big deal."
