Write an analysis of how Carson used the media and her skills as a writer to achieve her goals.

Rachel Carson was ahead of her time.Through eloquent writing and well thought out reason, she was able to motivate a public that was uninformed. Through diligent study she was able to have the knowledge, experience, and open mind to really expose a potential danger. It was her passion to understand the earth, specifically the ocean that had lead to Carson becoming a beacon for environmental protection. If it were not for her ability as a writer and the popularity of her book than the EPA potentially would not have been created and inspired to make serious changes.

Thanks to enlightened humans like Rachel Carlson we now have a window to the future, revealing how scientists and writers will need to pursue to gain the attention of the public.

The United States is in a position of power world wide. We as a country need to realize and use wisely our control over media and understand our position economically to become better leaders on a broader perspective.

The passage from Rachel Carson’s blog explains her impact on the environment the clearest was, “Carson and her most famous book, SILENT SPRING, are credited with no less than inspiring the modern global environmental movement.”
