Delaware corporations are corporations that have their charter in the state of Delaware. Delaware has long been known to be a corporate-friendly state, and its long tradition of successfully applying corporate law allows it to score over rival states even though other states too are sometimes as corporate-friendly as Delaware, if not more. It is also widely acknowledged that the Delaware General Corporation Law is the nation’s most flexible an
A few days ago I had one of those “random” conversations that sets the brain blazing down a hundred different paths almost immediately. The topic was DDT, and how that chemical was bought and sold with impunity in Latin America years after it had been banned in the United States for causing serious health and environmental problems.
In the beginning it was the wonder chemical of yore. From getting rid of vermin, to use as an agricultural pesticide, to eliminating malaria, the new potion apparently knew no bounds. Soon however, nasty little pieces of evidence – cancer, birth defects, and environmental hazards – started to spring up against the wonder chemical. Consequently, during the 1970s and 1980s, agricultural use of DDT was banned in the US and most developed countries.
However, it would seem this urgent health and environmental update somehow bypassed Latin America and some other parts of the world. In countries like Ecuador and Colombia, DDT and similar derivatives remain in active use especially for agricultural purposes. All this despite the 2001 Stockholm Convention calling for the elimination of such “persistent organic pollutants” in agribusiness.

It’s no secret that career job search times have changed. Especially in the 21st Century marketplace.Just take a look at the dramatic changes that have occurred in the last few years:1. Changing jobs every three years is no longer frowned upon.2. Lifetime employment went out with the dinosaurs.3. Corporate loyalty to workers in terms of job guarantees is dead.4.

The Two Components of a Credit/Debit Card Transaction Each time you process a credit or debit card transaction, you are charged an inquiry fee and a percentage of the total transaction. The inquiry fee is a flat amount, typically between 20 cents and 35 cents. The percentage charged, is typically called your "credit card rate" and it is variable based on the type of transaction and the type of card used.Cr
DDT and other such persistent pollutants are just that – persistent. In human and other animal life, they cluster in fatty areas and proceed, nonstop, to erode the system from within. And this is just the proverbial tip.
Marketing and selling chemicals in developing countries, where public awareness of negative effects may be lower, is irresponsible, to say the least. And obviously certain businesses thrive by courting governments that are either more susceptible to manipulation or prone to allowing the unchecked commercialization of such hazardous products.
The ongoing side effects from the continued use of such chemicals in Colombian and Ecuadorian floral workers – headaches, nausea, impaired vision, asthma, stillbirths, congenital malformations, miscarriages – are graphic and constant reminders of the blatant sociopolitical and economic double standards at play in our current global dynamic.
Sneaky history. It almost impressive the way it keeps recycling itself. Well, at least we can’t call it unsustainable.
