Scientist Joe Kaplinsky takes a sober look at the controversial chemical DDT, noting that it is one of the most effective pesticides ever developed and great at combating malaria. He also employs a critical approach to the intellectual legacy of Rachel Carson, author of the famous 1962 book The Silent Spring . Kaplinsky takes on the anti-scientific prejudices of Carson and her followers and suggests DDT could be and should be widely used today to save lives. ]]> Wed, 23 Sep 2009 14:53:17 -0400 Chill out about DDT 24509697 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/-1042-anagrams-sod-tokyo-teen-repellent-nz-runaway-millionaires/24509697

Today's mistake is here: http://lang-8.com/53261/journals/1564... After I said that I didnt know how the name lang-8 was pronounced I saw it written in Japanese ( langeito) so I guess its pronounced something like that in English. Mistake: The diary actually said last week not last night I read it out wrong. Note: Mean is also an adjective and a noun but they mean different things.

ABOBO, C te d'Ivoire, 18 August 2008 - Malaria is very common in C te d'Ivoire, and especially so in the area of Abobo. Only 6 per cent of children in the country sleep under an insecticide-treated mosquito net. For several years, UNICEF and the Government of Japan have been working to reduce the hold that infectious diseases have on the children and families of C te d'Ivoire. Japan will support health interventions -- such as providing insecticide-treated bednets to pregnant women and children -- to save the lives of 400,000 children here over the next five years. In May of this year, UNICEF globally launched 'The State of Africa's Children 2008: Child Survival' in Yokohama City, Japan, on the occasion of the Fourth Tokyo International Conference on African Development. At the launch event, Senior Vice-Minister for Foreign Affairs Itsunori Onodera noted Japan's commitment to this cause. "The international community must support the efforts for child survival," he said.

SHEBEDINO, Ethiopia, 5 August 2008 -- The rainy season is well underway in much of Ethiopia, but while the rains bring hope to rural communities, they also create ideal breeding conditions for malaria-carrying mosquitoes. Over twenty million insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) have been distributed to more than ten million households in malaria-prone areas of Ethiopia since 2005. The nets have only a three-year lifespan, however, so those that were distributed early in the campaign now need replacement. Mulunesh Musse shares one such treated bednet with her four children in Shebedino District. The bednet is now ripped along one side and has a gaping hole in front, so it no longer fully protects her and her family from malaria.

Every night on Planet Earth, ponds, lakes, streams, marshes, and even forests come alive with the deafening chorus of lively amphibians called frogs. In this episode, we will explore some of the lesser-known habits and habitats of frogs and toads. We will also explore a new threat to frogs and amphibians that is capable of wiping out thousands of species of these beloved and essential creatures.Luckily, with the help of Planet Bonehead, and people like you all over the world, a consortium of scientists, biologists and wildlife experts, who are members of Amphibian Ark, have taken on a huge task that will save countless species of frogs and toads from extinction.Amphibian species are becoming extinct at a pace faster than anything we have ever experienced, and we need to spread the word. If we lose thousands of amphibian species, it will have an effect on our environment and on species all the way up the food chain. ]]> Wed, 06 Feb 2008 10:05:50 -0500 Frogs 23799933 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/unicef-inspired-gifts-mosquito-nets-make-a-difference/23799933
