As president, Barack Obama had made it a goal to help the environment. Obama took initiative since Congress would not. After his second term comes to a close, he has implemented the largest marine reserve in the world, rejected an oil pipeline, and has used the Antiquities Act more than any other president. Obama has made it a goal for Americans to care about their environment but being a good role model as president.
Reading this article made me feel a lot more respect towards Obama. He has made sure to help the environment out the best of his abilities and took initiative on his own. I think that is a great quality to have in a president. It makes me think to whether or not our future president will implement policies that will help the environment or simply do nothing to further the progress has made. Trump shows to not care about the environment which is unfortunate, but I hope Obama's actions have inspired others to take initiative.
