No question, he was one of the few best-known scientists able to communicate some of the scientific concerns about the environment in a wakeup call to the public of the late 60s and the 70s. My problem with articles like the one linked is that they misuse terms, misplace emphasis, and employ hyperbole to inflate their subject, so the historical perspective becomes skewed.
