Answer:

C. The damage to all living things caused by insecticides

Explanation:

Late in the 1950s, Carson turned her attention to conservation problems, the ones that she believed were caused by synthetic pesticides. In 1962, she wrote a book about her findings titled "Silent Spring", which brought environmental concerns to the American limelight. Silent Spring was met with fierce opposition by chemical companies, but it still went on to spurr a reversal in national pesticide policy, which led to a nationwide ban on DDT and other pesticides. And it also inspired a grassroots environmental movement that led to the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

max2010maxim [7]
An Andulus, or Islamic Spain helped to seed the ideas of coexsistance, although imperfect, and reinforced the idea that Jews, Christians, and Muslims could live together in relative peace and be happy. While most of Europe was plunged into a period of darkness after the fall of the Roman Empire, Spain shone brightly in the areas of Sanitation, women's rights and progress (as women were allowed to hold land under Islamic law and have a share in inheritances), architecture, debate and Oral traditions, trade, Science, Mathematics, and preserving the both ancient and classical records/knowledge. This led to progression in all of Europe, and indirectly aided in dissipating the dark ages and bringing about the High Middle Ages.
