Chemicals play a huge part in the destruction of our environment. The chemicals power plants emit of, cars, and even simple hairspray cans can hurt the environment. It is just not as obvious because you can not always see the chemicals. It is hard to be concerned about something you can not see. These chemicals have already changed the environment by destroying the ozone layers. It is just not always on everyones mind because it is not in our faces everyday.
"The rapidity of change and the speed with which new situations are created follow the impetuous and heedless pace of man rather than the deliberate pace of nature. (Carson, p.154)"
Our world is moving at such a fast pace we are not letting nature take its own course of action. We are to busy trying to fix the environment and make it a better place or us to live we are not letting nature take its own path. We need to let nature fix itself and let it recover and focus on how to not destroy it in the future.
"We allow the chemical death rain to fall as though there were no alternative, whereas in fact there are many, and our ingenuity could soon discover many more if given opportunity. (Carson, p.159)"
We can eliminate a lot of the chemical problems by finding alternative methods. With how advanced our world is today there has to be different ways than to use the chemicals we do now. We need to find more natural occurring methods to use other than harmful man made chemicals.This can help keep the environment from being damaged by us everyday.
