Answer:
The answer is “None of the above”
Step-by-step explanation:
The industry was against the information stated in the book because it implicated the industry, and government officials too. Therefore, Carson was not a hero to everyone. Congress did not ban DDT immediately, and people read the book which called for greater moderation and careful use of pesticides. Carson accused the industry of spreading information that contradicted scientific information regarding the use of DDT; in addition, she also accused government officials of accepting the industry’s claims that the use of DDT was safe.
The book helped to initiate campaigns against the use of DDT which was banned in USA in 1972, and worldwide in 2004, but is still being used to control or eradicate mosquitoes.
