'''''Silent Spring''''' is a book written by [[Rachel Carson]] in 1962. It has been credited with helping to start the [[environmentalism]] movement in the [[United States]].

*<blockquote>A daunting theme runs throughout ''Silent Spring'' — that man’s ingenuity would be his own worst enemy. And therein lies the essence of Rachel’s folly. Carson and her intellectual heirs in the [[environmental movement ]] embrace a mistaken vision of [[technology]]. It is an impaired vision that considers only the risks of industrial chemical compounds, and not the risks created by their absence.<ref>http://www.fumento.com/rachel.pdf</ref></blockquote> ==See Also==* [[Environmentalism]]
