He was a teacher in Timișoara, and director of the National Theater Bucharest. In 1933, Petrescu wrote the novel Patul lui Procust ("The Bed of Procrustes"). Freed in 1918, he depicted his war experiences in his 1930 novel Ultima noapte de dragoste, întâia noapte de război ("Last Night of Love, First Night of War").

This approach put Carson at odds with the fledgling organic movement, which totally rejected synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. She "favored a restrained use of pesticides, but not a complete elimination, and did not oppose judicious use of manufactured fertilizers," writes Harvard University sustainability scholar Robert Paarlberg. Against absolutesĪlthough the chemical industry attacked "Silent Spring" as anti-science and anti-progress, Carson believed that chemicals had their place in agriculture. These articles from The Conversation's archive spotlight ongoing questions about pesticides and their effects. "Silent Spring" is widely viewed as an inspiration for the modern environmental movement. Carson did not call for banning DDT, the most widely used pesticide at that time, but she argued for using it and similar products much more selectively and paying attention to their effects on nontargeted species. In 1962 environmental scientist Rachel Carson published " Silent Spring," a bestselling book that asserted that overuse of pesticides was harming the environment and threatening human health. This article was originally published on The Conversation. ![]() ![]() ![]() And I can say this, because I loved her best of all.""
