Horrific Affect of Pestcides in A Fable for Tomorrow from the Book Silent Spring by Rachel Carson

Furthermore, she showed that pesticides could cause "sudden unexplained deaths between adults and children" (29). In this way, Carson places great emphasis on how pesticides affect not only animals but also humans. Further analysis of this proposal suggests that Carson wants to make people understand how to kill with pesticides. Furthermore, Mr. Carson explained that "vegetation withering brown has now been found along the road, which seems to have been attacked by fire," explained the influence of pesticides on the environment (29).

Tomorrow's allegory is an excerpt from Rachel Carson's book "Silent Spring". This is the story of a fictitious city in America where the environment and town are completely destroyed by pesticides. The story is fictitious, but the affair of the town is based on facts. Before the 1960's, DDT seemed to be a wonderful gift to save millions of lives by killing diseases that carry insects. During the war more soldiers died thanks to sickness than battle. As pesticides are doing very well, nobody is concerned about possible side effects. However, in 1962, a quiet spring made people aware of the dangers of pesticides, especially DDT. I think that this is a very important task, as the dangers of agrochemical chemicals become apparent. If people are aware of the risks, they can make better decisions and the chemicals they use today have far less harm to the environment.

"Silent Spring" is the work of environmental science of Ray Cher Carson. The book published on 27th September 1962 documented the adverse effects of indiscriminate pesticide use on the environment. Carson condemned the chemical industry to disseminate erroneous information and civil servants undoubtedly accepted marketing statements from the industry. In the late 1950's, Carson took his attention to protection, especially considering environmental problems caused by synthetic pesticides. As a result, "quiet Spring" (1962) was born, environmental problems were brought to the American people. Spring of silence was strongly opposed by chemical companies, but it has banned the use of DDT for national agricultural purposes and as a result encouraged the environmental movement that led to the establishment of the US Environmental Protection Agency .

As a mother of the environmental movement, Rachel Carson's environmental activities encouraged the country to seriously study environmental problems. Her famous book "Silent Spring" published in 1962 caused the state to review and ban the use of DDT. Carson's work was attacked by a chemical manufacturer who painted her as a policeman and she tried to uncover her findings as she was a woman.
