Environmental science technology has come a long way since the Rachel Carson’s 1962 book Silent Spring. Credited as being one of the first reformers of environment science, Carson did not lay her concerns with the polar ice-caps melting or the core temperature of the earth rising; but rather the effects that DDT had on the ecosystem. Her book raised concern and solved a major problem. While the problem only threatened individuals on the community level, it became the number one concern for many.
