    Carter also embraced nuclear energy, IIRC.

    Carter specifically avoided nuclear energy. He was involved in a nuclear accident, so he knew the risks and favored building massive solar panels.

    To quote the linked article: “The project was not continued with the change in administrations after the 1980 United States elections.”

    That fucker Reagan also took Carter’s solar panels off the White House.

        Actually, his anti-nuclear stance started when he was in the Navy working on nuclear reactors. In 1952 a Canadian reactor melted down and he was on the team that fixed it.

          And suffered radiation poisoning for months, if not years, after. An actual hero rather than a B movie star.
