RIP Jimmy Carter ! Pictured here speaking at the installation of solar panels at the White House in 1979, which the Reagan Administration later removed.
Jimmy was far ahead of the curve with regards climate change and sustainability. Midway through his own 4 year Administration, and faced with the second opec oil shock, put forward a goal for producing twenty per cent of the country’s energy from renewable resources by the year 2000. If only he’d stayed in for a second term, who knows the impact we could have seen on the environment today.
