Support a Green Candidate

1872 was strange because one of the primary candidates never saw the final Electoral College vote.

• Ulysses S. Grant, who led the Union armies that defeated the Confederacy, had not been so convincing in the Oval Office.
• Some Republicans defected, becoming Liberal Republicans...

Consumers who want to limit the impact on the environment, consume in two broad ways:

• Green buying: Buying environmentally sustainable products.
• Reduced consumption: Buying minimal, second-hand or repairing/reusing products.

Credentials may be overrated, but motivation is often underrated. A candidate may have a lot of experience but may lack the drive to think creatively and work collaboratively. The right candidate will also be hungry and eager to improve.
