RACHEL CARSON AND HER ATTACK ON GREENERY
Abstract
The awareness about the damage that humanity and its development do to the planet did not arise from nowhere. Moreover, the first alarms were initially dismissed because they questioned the economic progress and the fundamentals of Western culture at large. This article reminds us of the difficulties of one of those first battles for something that seems so obvious to us today: the damage caused by pesticides both to humans as to the planet.
