Did you ever read Silent Spring?

She talks about how insecticides, etc. should actually be called biocides, since the purpose is to kill life

I think we'll look at this era as madness given we intentionally poison all life and wonder why we have pest problems

I learned from the author of the BTC Standard we might have prematurely banned DDT and Silent Spring is specious 

We clearly do pretty horrible things to the environment. It’s sad one of the biggest environmentalist victories may be based on fabrications as it discredits all future attempts 

The “right” level of human intervention in the environment is a tough tension to grapple with
