Rachel Carson is responsible for the unnecessary death of millions of Africans because she wrote a book called silent spring

Silent Spring was a book written by an American marine biologist named Rachel Carson in 1962. This book was instrumental in the launching of the environmental movement. Silent Spring documented negative effects of pesticides on the environment, more specifically DDT. Since the publishing of this book, environmental extremists have sought to ban all DDT use. In 1972, the EPA banned DDT use. Some extremists groups convinced the nation that DDT was not only unsafe for humans but unsafe to birds as well. Their arguments have since been scientifically refuted.
While DDT saved crops, forests and livestock, it also saved humans. In 1970, the U.S. National Academy of Sciences estimated that DDT saved more than 500 million lives during the time it was widely used. A scientific review board of the EPA showed that DDT is not harmful to the environment and showed it to be a beneficial substance that "should not be banned." According to the World Health Organization, worldwide malaria infects 300 million people and about 1 million die of malaria each year. Most of the victims are in Africa.
Studies conducted on DDT concluded that the chemical is safe and beneficial in the fight against malaria and the mosquito vector. Because the lack of knowledge about DDT, causing the chemical to be banned, many people have suffered and died due to malaria. Further studies need to be conducted to better understand the effects of DDT allowing for proper regulation.
