The passage describes the main disadvantages of chemical substance DDT, including its harm for the environment, human bodies and its failure in combatting diseases. However, the lecture claims that DDT usage is more beneficial and harmful.
The first arguable point is the impact of DDT on flora and fauna. The author of a reading states that the chemical accumulates in soil, bodies of animals and, thus, leads to the depopulation of living creatures. On the contrary, the lecturer highlights the fact that DDT in smaller quantities is not so devastating and instead helps to kill the damaging insects.
Next reason deals with the influence of DDT on human body. The reading implies that the consumption of sprayed DDT may cause diabetes, problems with birth and even cancer. Due to the passage, such catastrophic outcomes made the chemical forbidden in the US. However, the lecture asserts that when the DDT is consumed in small amounts, it has no bad effect on human health.
The last bone of contention is about the capability of DDT to combat malaria. The author of the reading contends that DDT failed to overcome the disease and, controversially, promoted the resistance of insects, that transmit dangerous diseases, to DDT. In the same time, a lecturer claims about the powerfulness of DDT in combatting malaria and positive applications of DDT as a counterfeit against insects in Shri Lanka.
In conclusion, the information presented in both passage and the lecture presents for and against arguments of DDT application. While the author of the passage accentuates on negative outcomes of the chemical for environment, human health and combatting malaria, the lecturer describes beneficial sides of DDT usage and its innocuousness in smaller quantities.
