Well, its saturday night, and I just got back from playing Soma. It went pretty well. ANYWAYS I'm tired. So since we have to have like posts on like 5 peoples blogs, I thought I would get one out of the way.
This post is on Danielle's post from 9/5/07 on the website http://www.bt.ucsd.edu/synthetic_pesticide.html. I chose to do this post on hers because her website looked like a very reliable source, and it was on the effects of DDT, which I wanted to know more about. Her response to the article was pretty breif, and she pretty much summarized it. The first part of the article is about the history of pesticides (which reminds me, I forgot to blog about a resource I read about that) and the second part was about DDT's effect on the environment. The rest of the article was about how DDT and other pesticides can effect the environment and humans. Some of the effects include death, eggshell thinning, odd behaviour, reproductive problems, nervous failure, endocrine, and weakend immune system.
