The book Silent Spring exposed the lack of concern for the environment in the United States. One of the main focuses of this was the use of pesticides. Congress did an investigation in order to see if these claims were valid or not. The results of Congress validated this study and prompted the regulation of chemicals and the amount of pollution that companies put into the air.
