It was also a time when the answer to many questions was simply: more chemicals.Certain things had gone unnoticed in this triumphal story, however. The synthetic pesticide DDT had been rushed into battle zones in 1940 in the hopes of defeating the spread of typhus via lice or malaria. Over one million people—thousands in the city...

Rachel Carson is known as a gifted science writer and a trailblazing environmental activist. Harvard Business School historian Nancy Koehn argues that she also should be remembered as a great leader. Carson’s 1962 classic book Silent Spring revealed the dangers of DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) and led to an almost global ban on organic synthetic pesticides within 15 years of its publication. “She exercises such a profound impact on other people. That’s what leaders do,” Koehn tells IdeaCast guest host Adi Ignatius. “She was an introvert. She was shy. And yet she had more impact than most presidents...

The writer Rachel Carson who fought insecticide wars
Rachel Carson’s 1962 book Silent Spring has probably done more than any other to raise concerns about the damage that uncontrolled use of chemicals can cause to the natural world. Carson imagined a ‘silent spring’ in a world where birds no longer sang, killed off by indiscriminate spraying of pesticides. Her plea for caution when using insecticides led to major changes in government regulation of agrochemicals both in the United States and elsewhere.So who was Rachel Carson? How did this scientist with a passionate interest in marine biology turn first into a best-selling author and then into a...

It is recognized as the environmental text that “changed the world.” She aimed at igniting a democratic activist movement that would not only question the direction of science and technology but would also demand answers and accountability.

Rachel Carson was born in 1907 in Springdale, Pennsylvania. Carson was a passionate scientist and ecologist, writing about the environment. Her most famous book, Silent Spring, was published in 1962 - two years before her death. The book emphasises the need to preserve our world. It also presented her theory about the environmental consequences of pesticide misuse - particularly DDT, a pesticide used to kill mosquitoes. To discuss this further, I’m joined by historian Linda Lear. She wrote “Rachel Carson: Witness for Nature”, a biography about Carson and her work.

Rachel Carson - när fåglarna tystnar
En dag får den amerikanska biologen Rachel Carson ett brev från en vän som berättar att det ligger fullt med döda fåglar i trädgården. Marken har besprutats med bekämpningsmedlet DDT. Kan det finnas ett samband? Med boken "Tyst vår", utgiven 1962, visar Rachel Carson att svaret är ja. Bekämpningsmedel skadar inte bara insekter utan även andra djur och människor. Boken förändrar lagstiftningen i USA och blir startskottet till den moderna miljörörelsen. Men Rachel Carson får också svidande kritik från kemiindustrin.

The Life and Legacy of Rachel Carson (start time 6:20). The book Silent Spring, published in 1962, is widely credited for setting the stage for the modern environmental movement. Its author, Rachel Carson, an unassuming field biologist and writer, uncovered how in the process of killing crop pests, chemicals such as DDT were also killing birds, fish and other wildlife. Fifty years after Silent Spring was published, several of the worst offending toxins are off the market – at least in the U.S. – but many more persist and new ones have emerged. And they’re wreaking havoc on human health, no...

...och inga fåglar sjunga – ett program om Rachel Carson
Tyst Vår är boken som sägs ha startat den västerländska miljörörelsen. Biologen och författaren Rachel Carson skriver om hur människan i sin kamp mot skadedjur tar död på allt annat liv och i förlängningen på sig själv. I dagarna är det 50 år sedan boken Silent Spring - Tyst vår kom ut. En bok som skapade debatt, som blev en storsäljare och som kom att göra skillnad - även i Sverige. Helen Ardelius berättar historien om Rachel Carson och boken Tyst vår.

Nature Conservation: The Influence of American Philosophies on Modern China
How have US American ideas about nature conservation influenced the conception of nature in China? Carson Fellow Hou Shen bases her research around the nature writings of three well-known American writers—Henry David Thoreau, Aldo Leopold, and Rachel Carson—in order to demonstrate how the idea of preserving nature for humans and for other species has been interpreted and transformed in Chinese culture.
