We join the nation in mourning and remembering the life of former President Jimmy Carter — a great humanitarian, diplomat, and environmental visionary. Ahead of his state funeral in Washington, DC today, we wanted to take a moment and honor his legacy.
President Carter was the first president to put solar panels on the White House and proposed tax credits to bring clean energy to American homes. He created the Energy Department and encouraged Americans to make conscious efforts to conserve power.
President Carter designated 56 million acres in Alaska as federally protected lands and then signed a bill to protect millions more. He went against the status quo by protecting rivers and streams from excessive damming and by appointing an Interior Secretary who refused to be in the pockets of developers.
He understood that the natural world is precious, that it must be preserved at all costs, and that clean energy would be “one of the greatest and most exciting adventures ever undertaken by the American people.”
Here at SEEC PAC, we’re honoring his life’s work and celebrating his belief in conservation and a sustainable future.
