Is global warming denialism primarily based on free market fundamentalism?

[kathy_is_a_nurse]

"...many of the people who deny the dangers of anthropogenic global warming also deny that DDT...caused significant public and environmental damage..."

Wonderful example... And let's look at the public damage that occurred because of knee-jerk reaction to a minimal POTENTIAL problem identified in lab RATS only. After the worldwide ban on DDT, the results have been disastrous for developing countries. At least 1-2 million people continue to die from malaria each year. Over 60 million lives have been lost needlessly since the ban took effect.

So if making similar knee-jerk reactions over similar unproven potential problems without knowing the unforeseen consequences of those actions is free market fundamentalism in your mind... I'm OK with that.

Edit:

You're correct about the partial reversal in Stockholm. But that was certainly done under duress. The international pressure to phase out DDT continues despite it's tremendous value in underdeveloped countries. It has become a common international practice to offer developing countries funds with the stipulation that they cannot be used to purchase or use DDT which makes the Stockholm Convention authorization to use it rather moot... doesn't it. They say on paper that DDT can be used, but they make it virtually impossible for impoverished nations to get it.
