Senator Gaylord Nelson was inspired to create Earth day because of
A the information he read in Rachel Carson’s book.
B the effects of the oil spill in California.
C the concerns he had over timber logging.
D the after effects of wildfires in California.
The correct answer is A the information he read in Rachel Carson’s book.
Senator Gaylord Nelson was inspired to create Earth Day in part due to the environmental awareness raised by Rachel Carson’s book, “Silent Spring,” which highlighted the dangers of pesticides and sparked a broader environmental movement. This influence contributed to Nelson’s efforts to promote environmental education and activism, culminating in the first Earth Day celebration in 1970.
