Rachel Carson

Rachel Carson
Website: Life and Legacy




Rachel Carson published a book called the “Silent Spring” to inform people about the destruction of wildlife due to the use of the pesticide DDT. She was one of the first people to criticize technology that was intended to better the condition of the human race, rather than a specific development. Her book brought out the unintended consequences. She warned the public that they should not be interfering with issues and processes they do not fully understand.
