        So, wearing a green ribbon indicates:
1) Promotion of organ donor registration.
2) Religious and racial tolerance. (Thank you for mentioning this; I can use
it where I work.)
3) Preservation of native languages.

        Or in short, green ribbon = enlightened individual.

        I will definitely have to start wearing mine.
