problems with rachel carson
Rachel Carson was most certainly interested in the positive affects that her ideas would have on the world. However, many people have discovered a negative aspect of her work. When she discusses the precautions that people should take against harming the environment, it can be interpreted by some people that she is trying to control the decisions that people make regarding potentially saving their own lives and their children's lives. This is especially an issue in less developed nations who depend more on the United States for information regarding the environment and pest control. Nevertheless, I believe Rachel Carson only had the best intentions and was not trying to scare or control anyone.
