[Bldg-sim] RIP Jimmy Carter

[Bill Bishop]

"Future generations of conservation leaders must remember that we are stewards of a precious gift, which is not an unpleasant duty but rather an exciting challenge. We must safeguard our land so that our children and grandchildren can enjoy freshwater, clean air, scenic mountains and coasts, fertile agricultural lands, and healthy, safe places to live and thrive." - President Jimmy Carter, to the audience at ecoBenefête, being honored as the 2019 Distinguished Conservationist by the Georgia Conservancy.

I would say yes. His most famous image that comes to mind is of him sitting in a sweater at the White House to signal the need for conserving energy. A lot of Americans didn't like that look, but it made a lasting impression. He was the first US President to make people aware of energy issues.  Also installed solar water-heating panels on the White House. One of my favorite Presidents for his common sense and decency.

Sincerely,
Smita

As a Brit, I'm curious. Would members of this list say that he leaves some legacy regarding energy?
I gather that he established the DOE (and depth of education).
RIP to a thoroughly decent person.
Chris
