New PBS Documentary Features Inspirational Biologist Rachel Carson and Her Book “Silent Spring” About Dangers of Pesticides

 

For those not familiar with Rachel Carson and her book, Silent Spring, they serve as an example of dogged persistence in publicizing the truth – no matter how uncomfortable the experience.

 

This PBS segment won’t be televised until May 28; however, it is currently available for streaming here.

 

When Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring was published in 1962, the book became a phenomenon. A passionate and eloquent warning about the long-term dangers of pesticides, the book unleashed an extraordinary national debate and was greeted by vigorous attacks from the chemical industry. But it would also inspire President John F. Kennedy to launch the first-ever investigation into the public health effects of pesticides — an investigation that would eventually result in new laws governing the regulation of these deadly agents.

 

The title Silent Spring has served as inspiration for more recent publications about sources of “Electrosmog” (including wireless WiFi radiation) which have also already been proven to cause significant biological and environmental harm. For more details, see “Wireless Silent Spring” written by Dr. Cindy Russell and “Electronic Silent Spring” written by Katie Singer.

France bans wearing masks in public while protesting

 

As violent anti-government protests continue in France, the nation’s National Assembly has moved to ban masks worn by protesters in a move that can be seen as restricting free speech.

 

The recently passed law prohibits protesters from wearing masks at public protests, or face a sentence of one year in prison and fines of up to $17,000, BBC News reported Thursday. Another part of the new law prohibits certain people from protesting altogether, and could grant an offender six months in prison and an $8,500 fine.

 

The measure was taken in response to the demonstrations carried out by the “gilets jaunes,” or “yellow vest,” movement, which has been behind the weekly protests in France extending for more than two months.

 

The protests have seen vandalism and destruction of vehicles and businesses in cities like Paris and Bordeaux
