The Green Revolution: The American Environmental Movement, 1962-1992 (A Critical Issue)

This book chronicles the profound shift in public awareness and attitudes that has taken place since the publication of Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring. Author Kirkpatrick Sale examines the rise of national environmental organizations and the impact of scientists’ theories on global warming, the greenhouse effect, acid rain, toxic waste, and biodiversity. He also demonstrates how environmental concerns permeate all levels of society and significantly influence legislative and regulatory efforts within our government.
