Environmental advocates are remembering Jimmy Carter as a president who elevated environmental stewardship, energy conservation and discussions about the global threat of rising carbon dioxide levels.

He called for cuts in greenhouse gas emissions well before “climate change” was part of the American lexicon.

Al Gore , whose climate advocacy earned him the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize , called Carter “a lifelong role model for the entire environmental movement”.

Carter won the presidency amid energy shortages rooted in global strife, especially in the oil-rich Middle East .

The energy crisis was unique in presidential politics for its condemnation of unchecked American consumerism.

Carter saw himself as a custodian of divinely granted natural resources, a professor says.
