I’m really very excited to be here at the Hobart Town Hall where it all began,” former Tasmanian and Australian Greens leader Christine Milne said on Saturday night at a celebration of 50 years of Green politics. “It was taking environmentalism into the heart of politics, and nobody could have dreamed that, 50 years on, we have Green parties in over 90 countries in the world and Greens in government in six European countries and in New Zealand.”
