Social Justice: Greens oppose the worldwide system of poverty and injustice, and are working to end oppression based on class, gender, race, citizenship, age or sexual orientation.

Grassroots Democracy: Greens believe that the power concentrated in big business and big government must be returned to the people. We believe in direct participation by all people in the environmental, political, and economic decisions that affect their lives.

Nonviolence: Greens reject violence as a way of settling disputes. It is shortsighted, morally wrong and ultimately self-defeating. We are working to create a society where coercion and violence are obsolete.

Decentralization: Power and responsibility must be restored to local communities, within an overall framework of ecologically sound, socially just values and ways of living.

Community Based Economics: Greens seek a new economics based upon the natural limits of the Earth, which meets the basic needs of everyone on the planet, and is under democratic, decentralized community control.

Gender Equity & Cooperation: The Green Movement is profoundly inspired by feminism. The ethics of cooperation and understanding must replace the values of domination and control.

Respect for Diversity: Greens honor the biological diversity of the Earth and the cultural, sexual and spiritual diversity of its people. We aim to reclaim this country's finest ideals: popular democracy, the dignity of the individual, and liberty and justice for all.

Personal & Global Responsibility: Greens demonstrate a commitment to global sustainability and international justice through political solidarity and personal lifestyles based on self-sufficiency and healthy living.

Future Focus Like the Iroquois Nation: Greens seek a society where the interests of the seventh generation are considered equal to the interests of the present. We must reclaim the future for ourselves and our children.
