Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of the United States. He was both inspirational, well respected, and was a very good President. He would be considered as a hero because he helped establish peace and took major steps to protect the environment.
Theodore Roosevelt would be considered a hero because he established peace. “US President Theodore Roosevelt brought both Russia and Japan to settle the Treaty of Portsmouth, which ended the Russo-Japanese War”. It's pretty bold, courageous, and inspiring on how he established peace among 2 countries at war. It helps us to think that peace can stop the bloodshed of war, and keeps us from tearing each other apart.
During his presidency, Theodore Roosevelt worked to also preserve the natural surroundings. A hero that not only cares about peace but took part in helping the environment. During his years as President “he would set aside 125 million acres as a forest of natural reserves, even now these reserves became many of our famous natural surroundings like the Yellowstone National Park”. Even before he was President, he would care for the natural environment around him. It's inspiring because we the people can also take part in helping the environment. All it takes is just us making those decisions come real.
The 26th President of the United States would be considered a hero because of him establishing peace and taking part in helping the environment.
