Silent Spring
Book by Rachel Carson
What happened was when people realized the DDT was killing all the birds in the world by making their eggshells to thin to support life without cracking too soon. People quickly (relatively so) banned DDT so we wouldn't lose all the birds especially the Eagle and all hawks especially in the U.S.
begin quotes:
DDT was banned for most uses in the U.S. on
June 14, 1972,
with the ban becoming effective on December 31, 1972. The ban was
issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) due to concerns
about its adverse effects on wildlife and potential human health risks. - June 14, 1972: The EPA Administrator issued an order canceling nearly all federal registrations of DDT products.
- December 31, 1972: The ban on the general use of DDT took effect, with some limited exceptions for public health, quarantine, and minor crop uses.
