[PW] Jimmy Carter speech/address

[Patricia Hatch]

Hi,

Funny, my intention in posting the link was to take one to the very 
beginning of the document, period.  So apologies if the link actually 
takes you to the wrong place!

I did do some additional digging in some resources and found a 
reference (though not the actual speech) to a message that Carter 
sent to Congress about the environment--it is dated May 23, 
1977.  Source: Green, Marshall.  "The Evolution of U.S. International 
Population Policy 1965-92: A Chronological Account."  Population and 
Development Review, v.19:no.2 (June 1993), p. 311.

This same document also references a major report on the environment 
delivered during the Carter Administration entitled Global Report 
2000 Report to the President: Entering the Twenty-First Century (this 
was published on July 24, 1980); Carter references his report in the 
State of the Union address he gave on January 16, 1981-per the 
bibliography, this can be found in Public Papers of the Presidents, 
Jimmy Carter, 1980-1981.

Hope this is helpful,

Patty
