Feel really called to share this amazing, beautiful late 70's gentleman living off grid on a beautiful mountain property in north carolina. It's amazing what he's done. He's looking to start a community to live on the property. Text book green with maybe some yellow.

Ron Artest changed his name to Metta World Peace after getting into meditation, zen, and Indian culture. The name change is Ron unconsciously saying that he has seen what he needed to see at stage orange and is now ready to transcend into green.

Nice share, it looks like in 2009, she finally started to see the limitations of green, I wonder if she ever tapped into yellow. 

From the Wikipedia page: 

"In an April 2009 interview,[26] Hill pondered what would come next for her:

The tree-sit and action since created this very particular role that Julia Butterfly Hill fulfills. And, because I'm a person committed to growth, to looking for where my edge is, that role is now too narrow for me. But it's hard to figure out what's next because there's this entire reality that's been created around this role that I play. And I'm not discounting that role – I've been able to help communities that I love very much. And at the same time, I'm looking for what's next for me, and it's so easy to stay in that role that myself and this world co-created together. But I just know that there's aspects of it that need to shed."

Hello everyone,

This is my first post. I am a meloman and I wanted to add to this megathread a couple of bands that I listen to that are definitely in the Green (most of these are metal/rock):

 

1. Disturbed - I feel like they definitely had shades of green throughout their whole discography, but the 2015 album Immortalized is as green as it can be and the following albums and singles reflect that.

2. System of a Down - even from their beginnings they tried to gather awareness of injustices in the prison systems in the US, the armenian genocide, suicide, war, drugs and a lot more.

3. Metallica - their first albums are a bit more raw and might have a lot of aggression and “Red” in them, I think songs like “Fade to Black”, “Creeping death”, “For whom the bell tolls” are definitely a cut above. For example, on the “Master of puppets” album I think they tackle a lot of social issues like drugs (“Master of puppets”) , mental illness and the whole messed up system with mental treatments in the 80’s ("Welcome Home (Sanitarium)"), war and how the soldiers are treated ("Disposable Heroes") and calling out the hypocrisy of religion ("Leper Messiah"). "...And Justice for All" was another album that had a very green feel with themes like justice, war, truth and social norms, and mental illness again. The ending track, "Dyers Eve", is a very clear rebellion against “Blue” and “Orange”. Throughout the rest of the discography green themes are present.

4. Rage Against the Machine - I don’t even think I need to go into this one.

 

I'm sure there are much more bands like this, so if you want to add some similar stuff feel free to do so.

I love the nativité of young socialists in modern society. 

"Why You Should become a Socialist: because Capitalism is Wrong"

And spending an entire video telling about the wrongdoings of Capitalism without providing any real solution of how to solve that under a Socialist government, he didn't even mention some of the policies of Eastern European countries that tend to skew into a more socialist orientation, and how it can be "actualizable" into more populated countries, like the the U.S for example...

I'm not saying that a Socialist Government  will not work, I honestly don't know that. But the way that he presented that information it's just propaganda.
