The Locust of Africa's Problems

This from Stephen Heins:

World Leaders Have Ignored Africa Malaria and Insect Infestation

Unsurprisingly, the international foundations, Environmental NGOs, European Union, WHO, World Bank, IMF, and the UN have been enamored with central planning for many years, that doled out their environmental and technological genius like a "benevolent dictator."

Essentially, the world financial institutions ended up just giving loans to really bad governments. The World and International Monetary Fund never designed aid program incentives to help with malaria and insect infection actions. Like most examples of Western arrogance, these aid programs were simply expected to provide a silver bullet to issues such as population control, but they stuck with the environmental bromide, a insecticide-fre e world.

The desert loÂcust is described as "the most destructive migratory insect in the worldâ€™â€

In particular, Kenya has been hit esÂpeÂcially hard. One swarm there measures 37 by 25 miles, and ofÂfiÂcials say over a milÂlion acres of pasÂture and cropÂland have alÂready been deÂstroyed. The U.N., who shares a major responsibility for the famine, says that more than 20 milÂlion peoÂple in East Africa are facÂing food shortÂages.

When will world leaders stop their agricultural arrogance and anti-intelligen ce?

1 Tim, you did manage to make Spam comments harder to add. But somewhere along the line it became impossible for me to correct errors in posted articles -- errors such as the broken words in the article above. I'll try rebooting my machine to see if that helps, but. . .

3 That's what I was afraid of, Dana. And it didn't seem to actually stop the spam as the thread so dramatically illustrates.

I might have to drop the threshold back down and close comments for a time.

4 Too bad you can't work out some kind of double-authentication routine. This is the only way I get to talk with you these days.

5 There are systems in here that can do different things, but some of them don''t work and I don't understand others. Let me screw around with it.

I REALLY need to get my e-mail back.
