Subject: [NatureNS] 50th Anniversary of Silent Spring
Rachel Carson in her book, Silent Spring, exposed the disregard for =
the environment, human health, and wildlife in the pursuit of profit. =
Some would argue that she is directly responsible for the establishment =
of environmental protection agencies around the world. As these agencies =
are now being dismantled or gutted, as our aerial insectivores and many =
other bird species are dramatically declining, I would like to honor her =
memory by asking: What would Rachel Carson write today if she was still =
here.
