I’m studying for my Environmental Science class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

Task 1: Develop arguments and evidence to support a total global ban on DDT

Task 2: Develop arguments and evidence to support ending of all regulations on DDT

Task 3: Describe what is meant by “indoor residual spraying” of DDT: https://www.cdc.gov/malaria/malaria_worldwide/reduction/irs.html

Task 4: Briefly describe why the WHO recommended use of indoor residual spraying in 2006: https://www.who.int/mediacentre/news/releases/2006/pr50/en/

Task 5: Describe what this article from 2014 says about indoor residual spraying of DDT for malarial control: https://www.healio.com/news/infectious-disease/20141208/indoor-ddt-spraying-failed-to-add-additional-protection-against-malaria

Write one paragraph to give an answer to the Task 6 question.

Task 6 (independently for each student): What do you think is the ”right” policy for DDT, given the evidence chain above?

2) How does he suggest linking the power production industry with the transportation industry?

3) What are the economic tools for doing this, and what role does he suggest the government should play in this?

4) Do you think this proposal is realistic?
