Early Spring
With a more-than-passing nod to Rachel Carson’s environmental classic, SILENT SPRING, an American scientist has just publihsed a book on the advancing of spring in North Amerrica. It’s now a cou-ple weeks earlier than it used to be when Racehl was alive.
This book, EARLY SPRING, will certaily draw lots of fire and ire. There are place now where Rachel Carson’s name is still reviled, just as there are those who deplore the White House having an organic garden. So I hope the author is ready for the attacks upon her to begin. How dare she gather up data and information that makes global warming seem real and perhaps problematic?
