[7]About 9 billion per year for 20-30 years to eradicate malaria
[8]The time may be upon us now to start a program (which would really
get deployed in 2012 after the latest malaria vaccines have undergone
wider trials), to eradicate malaria
Eradication would not be cheap. A back-of-the-envelope estimate
suggests it would cost about $9 billion a year for two or three
decades to make and distribute the necessary vaccines, drugs and
equipment. But that compares with $3 billion a year indefinitely,
merely to contain the problem--not to mention the economic damage
done by the disease. Big ideas have to await the right time to be
realised. But for malaria that time may be now.

[22]Leaded gasoline linked to increased violent crime
[23]The NY Times discusses an interesting study that connects the
removal of lead from gasoline with the drop in violent crime
Has the Clean Air Act done more to fight crime than any other
policy in American history? That is the claim of a new
environmental theory of criminal behavior.
In the early 1990s, a surge in the number of teenagers threatened a
crime wave of unprecedented proportions. But to the surprise of
some experts, crime fell steadily instead. even low levels of lead
can cause brain damage that makes children less intelligent and, in
some cases, more impulsive and aggressive. She also discovered that
the main source of lead in the air and water had not been paint but
rather leaded gasoline -- until it was phased out in the 1970s and
'80s by the Clean Air Act, which took blood levels of lead for all
Americans down to a fraction of what they had been.
Reyes found that the rise and fall of lead-exposure rates seemed to
match the arc of violent crime, but with a 20-year lag -- just long
enough for children exposed to the highest levels of lead in 1973
to reach their most violence-prone years in the early '90s, when
crime rates hit their peak.
The correlation is across different states and countries who stopped
using leaded gasoline at different times.
[24]Here is the actual report
If this large an effect is true, it could also mean that the other
toxins from fossil fuels could also be resulting in behavioral change
that goes along with the health damage and death.
