Context:

Discussed in the context of DDT's impact on birds and wildlife. The speaker mentions that Rachel Carson wrote this book about the devastating effects of DDT on birds, explaining how it caused bird egg shells to become thin. The book's impact led to DDT being banned, and the Rachel Carson refuge was also mentioned earlier in the conversation about lead ammunition regulations.

Context:

Referenced in discussion about DDT's effects on raptors and bald eagles. The speaker asks 'What was the thing called silent spring and all that?' in the context of discussing what was done to save the bald eagle and the role of DDT/DDE in causing eggshell thinning. Rachel Carson's name is mentioned later in the same discussion as being analogous to Bell Rose's role in the lead shot ban conversation.

Context:

Referenced during a turkey hunting story where Brandon Butler compared a quiet morning with no wildlife sounds to Rachel Carson's 'Silent Spring.' The book was mentioned as a metaphor for the absence of wildlife.

Context:

The speaker references making a joke comparing the silent first morning of turkey hunting (when no turkeys were gobbling) to Rachel Carson's 'Silent Spring.' The book title was used metaphorically to describe the lack of turkey sounds during their hunt. Note: The speaker mispronounces the author's name as 'Carlson' instead of 'Carson.'
