If there is to be a future, it will be Green! The Kansas Green Party!
Our planet is in a profound crisis, facing global problems of a scale never before witnessed in the evolution of humans. The problems are all interrelated and part of one profound crisis: Economic – Political – Environmental & Spiritual. If we continue down the path we are on, we will not survive. We must radically change our world view, our values, and our patriarchal patterns of power and domination.
Greens Ecological World View: Values of Social Justice, Ecology, Nonviolence & Grassroots Economics & Democracy. Our platform of integrated, creative, & practical solutions places us in a unique position to offer positive alternatives to the timid, stale choices offered by the present dysfunctional two party system.
