Fifty years ago Rachel Carson died of breast cancer. And today, on the anniversary of her death, we honor her tenacious spirit. Weaving together science, facts and poetic language, she told the story about chemicals in our environment and spurred the environmental movement of the 60s, 70s and into today. Because of her, our world will never be the same, and at the same time, not enough is different. Its up to all of us to uphold her legacy into the future. But man is a part of nature, and his war against nature is inevitably a war against himself.”―Rachel Carson
