Carson, Nature’s Guardian, Bill Moyers’ Journal, September
21, 2007
Publisher: Films for the
Humanities & Sciences, 2007
Location: Multimedia
Description: DVD, 58 minutes
Summary: “In
this program, Bill Moyers pays tribute to environmental crusader Rachel
Carson, author of Silent Spring. Grim footage of ecological degradation
from the pre-Carson era is combined with generous excerpts from actress Kaiulani Lee's one-woman play about Carson's life called A sense of Wonder to honor the legacy of an
individual who, heedless of personal cost, sounded the alarm that
launched the environmental movement. Moyers also talks with photographic
artist Chris Jordan, who turns the statistics of consumerism into
indelible images of consumption and waste.”

creates stunningly beautiful art from civilizations materials and

country’s massive industrial revolution…allowing us to meditate

Silent Spring
Publisher: WGBG Boston Video/PBS,
2007
Location: Multimedia
Description: DVD, 55 minutes.
Summary: “[Rachel Carson] had been a biologist for the federal government
when she first took note of the effects of the unregulated use of pesticides
and herbicides. Carson’s great love of the
natural world drove her to write an expose of the chemical industry,
specifically the unregulated use of DDT.
Defying her failing health and risking her reputation, Carson published
her controversial work, Silent
Spring, in 1962….Silent
Spring, which became an instant bestseller, was translated into 22
languages and changed the way we think about the natural world.”
