Original Note:
The idea of “settled science” is a nonsense. Science is always looking for new information. Concerns about DDT were around from the start. The person who brought evidence to finally change opinion was a scientist, not a podcaster. https://sciencehistory.org/stories/magazine/beyond-silent-spring-an-alternate-history-of-ddt/
