Rachel Carson’s Environmental Religion "It should be noted in closing that Silent Spring at 50 isn’t a capitalist manifesto against environmentalism. Rather, the collection’s essays present clearly written arguments for why preserving the environment as well as protecting the health of humans and animals is as important to free marketers as it is to everyone else—provided sound science is considered. The Earth is God’s gift to us all, but the idolatry of nature advanced by Rachel Carson and perpetuated by many who followed her down the ill-considered path of environmental theology runs contrary to the real science that allows humanity to overcome pestilence and famine."
