About rachelcarson.org
Whenever my parents drove over the Allegheny River into downtown Pittsburgh from the rural community of Glenshaw where I was born, I begged my father not to go over the bridge that crossed the river above the stock yards. There were animal parts visible in the yard, and debris strewn along the river's edge. The smell of dead animals mixed with the stench of sulfur from the smelting operations further down river. We talked about why the city was dirty, the river polluted, and what we could do about it. For generations my family had been involved in the natural world and from them I learned to appreciate and nurture it. My grandfather loved books and loved to read to me when I was little.
