About the scientist:

Rachel Carson (1907-1964) was an American marine biologist, conservationist, and writer who is best known for her work on environmental conservation and the harmful effects of pesticides on wildlife. Her most famous work, "Silent Spring" (1962), was a groundbreaking book that exposed the dangers of synthetic pesticides such as DDT, and is widely credited with launching the modern environmental movement. Carson's meticulous research and vivid writing style helped to raise awareness of the potential consequences of human actions on the environment, and inspired a generation of activists and policymakers to take action to protect the natural world. Carson's work not only revolutionized the way we think about environmental health and conservation, but also challenged the prevailing scientific and cultural assumptions of her time, making her one of the most influential scientists and writers of the 20th century.
