Letter to the Editor from Le Ngo
Dear the Editor of the Johnsonville Press,

Thoughts on Copenhagen : “To see a tiger is to die; to see an official is to become destitute” By Andrew Cossard

In 1962, with the publication of Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring, the romantic works of wilderness appreciation were at last wedded to a scientific basis for concern, but the canary in the mine was not singing. Silent Spring did not spark a fundamental conceptual shift away from the flawed system of the Industrial Revolution.
