DDT: Елдер бойынша есептер

While DDT was among the original “dirty dozen” chemicals globally banned by the Stockholm Convention in 2004, some countries have requested ongoing uses of the highly hazardous pesticide for “acceptable purpose.”

IPEN members in countries where uses are ongoing documented the production, import, and use of DDT, noting available alternatives and calling for national and global action to end use of the harmful pesticide. Some members have also investigated impacts from the legacy of DDT production and use in their countries.
