Green Life
Colin talks about being Green:
I came to realize that I have been Green my whole life. Social justice, grassroots democracy, ecological wisdom, respect for diversity (just a few of those ten key values) these are values that I have held for many years and still hold today. I strongly believe that a majority of our neighbours here in Cambridge and North Dumfries also share these values and are, therefore, also Green - they just don’t know it yet.[1]
