    Excellent. One more thing for the deniers to claim isn't really happening.

      I'm sure we'll hear something about how this is actually a good think as well

        well the story title does include the word 'may' and the comment 'scientists are raising the possibility ' those 2 words are prime words for deniers! may and possibility.

        I know I read a long time ago that Antarctica and the Arctic are 2 of the most polluted places because a lot of pollution gets trapped. If it melts, it would make sense all that build up wouldn't trapped any longer.

          LOL almost as important as a few words changed by your movement, like from Global 'WARMING' to the all encompassing 'Climate Change', which covers Warming, Cooling, Storms, The lack of them, Monsoons, and droughts.

          Yes a play on words does seem to be very important to you guys.

            That change was made so simple minds can understand the term and all it covers. The word 'warming' did not just mean higher temps. Besides that, you really can't use a term as fact until after the fact,people with the wait and see attitude...despite what many scientists say ( and forget about Al G.) well....who has a perfect word for that?

            Is it a play on words when there are warnings about different chemicals, viruses, bacterias, every day risks people take when they use the words 'may, possibly, probable,might etc..?

            The problem with this story is the assumption that ddt is harmful to the environment. Please be advised this has been proven erroneous ddt is not harmful to the environment. Rachel Carson's book "Silent Spring" was a gross lie and, of course, since then million of people, mostly children, have died of a disease, malaria, when prior to the banning of ddt it was nearly whipped out. Another example of how liberal policies hurt and kill people.

              Wolfie-Did we really ban DDT for the whole world? It's still being used in some places esp. indoors. From what I remember bugs develop resistance to DDT and can then drink it like a Gator drinks beer at a Florida/Georgia game-with no hangover. There's allot of hype about the banning of DDT and how great it is.

              The MAJOR problems associated with the accumulation of DDT in the environment are irrefutable. I DARE you to provide JUST ONE peer reviewed article within the past twenty years that says otherwise.

              Just to eliviate any confusion, Wolfie, DDT that is not released into the environment does have benefit as an anti mosquito agent.

                You really are a crackpot because you surely made no sense with that remark.

                  Let me make it simple for you then.

                  Please provide a reference for the statement that you made about DDT.

                  Diverting attention away from your ill-found statement by name calling does not count as a reference.

                "Rachel Carson's book "Silent Spring" was a gross lie and, of course,"

                You would think differently if you have been exposed to these things like me and others who are suffering from the health effects of exposure.

                Why don't you go over seas and personally make it your goal in life wiping out Malaria with these chemicals. Then talk to us in 10 years.
