"The results of such spraying were famously depicted in Rachel Carson's landmark 1962 book Silent Spring, which launched the modern environmental movement."
I notice that they do no depict Carson's book for the fraud that it was. There was very little truth in it.
Rachel was the Margret Mead of environmentalism.
I have a set of short biographical readings in my classroom. Each is about 3 paragraphs long. One of the books had a section on Rachel Carson--I ripped it out and threw it away.
