  • Scientist David Suzuki stated that "Silent Spring" written by Rachel Carson was an important influence on the direction his work would take.

    Suzuki, in an interview discusses how during WW2, as a young child, he and his family (originally from Japan) were held for 4 yrs in a concentration camp at a mountain site.

    During the time he spent on the mountain, he developed a love for nature and today is a proponent of responsibility not destruction of earth's natural resources.

  • Thanks for the information. I like David Suzuki.

  • Good thing she's long dead. If she wasn't, I'd shoot her myself.

  • I'm sure the petrochemical industry appreciates the support. There are many like gurumagoo.

  • Males like you should be hung by the balls. Rachel was a genius, unlike you, such a sad excuse for a living creature, go stroke your cock dumb bastard!

  • The science on which SILENT SPRING's case against DDT was based was crap. The real reason that the powers-that-be wanted DDT banned is that DDT was saving millions of black lives in Africa from malaria.

    I suggest that the lives of people are worth more than that of birds, even if they're claims are correct, which they are not.

    One more thing. We'd have no bedbug problem if DDT were available.

    I don't trust the "experts"; they've lied to us time and time again. Get DDT!

  • You're ignorant.

  • Responsible for millions of lost lives. That's hilarious. jerk.

  • A lot of 3rd world countries didn't even know how to make DDT. And America controls everything. Once we stopped producing so much of it (because of Carson) it became much harder for the underdevloped countries to get their hands on DDT. Carson had the right idea to preserve the economy..I love the outdoors, animals, etc. . but she should've done more research before making her claims.

  • Millions the world over have died of cancer because of our polluted world. Thank God for Rachel and the environmental movement!

  • Rachel Carson is responsible for millions of deaths. If she didn't open her mouth about DDT, malaria could've possibly been wiped off the face of the earth for good. As it stands, the mosquitos have now gained immunity to almost everything we throw at them. And they're on their way to the U.S.

  • She should have kept her mouth shut and continued to allow agribusness to poison our rivers, water, air, and kill our national symbol.

  • Bush is responsible for the deaths of those who get cancer from industrial pollution. Carson saved lives. Environmentalists save lives!

  • The "Clean Air Initiative" and "Clean Water Initiative" from the Bush administration are ironic names.

  • That is why they are important.

  • Great vid friend!!!!

  • great job on this^^

  • great tribute video!!
