The correct answer is B) Silent Spring .
Silent Spring was a book written by Rachel Carson regarding the dangers of chemicals (specifically pesticides). This includes the detrimental effects these chemicals have on the environment and the negative health effects they can have on humans. For example, DDT was a substance discussed often by Carson. DDT was found to have links to the development of cancer.
Carson argued that chemical companies tried to hide/misinform the public about chemicals and what damage they can cause.
