* DDT is not very dangerous to the environment
I guess birds aren't part of the environment, then. It almost wiped out entire species of birds, especially predators. The DDT, concentrated in the prey species, weakened the eggshells until they cracked almost at a touch. That is why the American bald eagle almost became extinct in the lower 48 states. When you remove predatory species, the impact can be devastating.
If you are going to make ridiculous statements like this, be prepared to be shot down.
