WTF? (planetary 1-child law)

Well, for every cause there's a consequence. The ban on DDT has resulted in the enormous rise in Malaria which kills millions every year.

TOTAL FUCKING BULLSHIT!!!! DDT is banned in the USA not the WORLD!!!

While it may not be a LAW in some regions, it most certainly has been banned in areas most affected by malaria, then brought back when the death toll began to rise.

Do thy homework.
DDT

Where DDT is used, malaria deaths plummet. Where it is not used, they skyrocket. For example, in South Africa, the most developed nation on the continent, the incidence of malaria had been kept very low (below 10,000 cases annually) by the careful use of DDT. But in 1996 environmentalist pressure convinced program directors to cease using DDT. One of the worst epidemics in the country's history ensued, with almost 62,00 cases in 2000. Shortly after this peak, South Africa reintroduced DDT. In one year, malaria cases plummented by 80 percent. Next door, in Mozambique, whick doesn't use DDT, malaria rates remain stratospheric. Similar experiences have been recorded in Zambia and other African countries.

Or you could use mosquito nets.
