 InterLinc: Left Turn Traffic Signal Information
Left turn arrows are great if you're the one turning left, however they generally make the wait longer for everyone at the intersection.
A green permissive ball is then displayed which allows waiting left turn vehicles to proceed with the left turn during acceptable safe gaps in the opposing through traffic.
Left turn arrows are a definite convenience for the lower volume left turning traffic, but since the allotted time for the arrow must be subtracted from the much heavier opposing through traffic, overall intersection delay is increased.

 A Critique of the Draft Program of the Left Green Network
Left Greens should always direct their major focus toward the systemic problems of capitalism: its inexorable need to grow, to simplify the ecology of the planet, to turn back the clock of natural evolution to a point where it will be impossible for complex life-forms to exist.
Left Green groups will surely want to provide guidance to their communities in struggles for the preservation of wetlands, forests, lakes, good agricultural land, and particularly the activation of citizens in municipal and regional public life.
The Left Greens should be uncompromising in their spirit of opposition and bitterly critical of attempts by the establishment, particularly conventional parties, to dilute their demands to a point where they become in fact barebone reforms.

 From red to green: Marxists and environmentalists
Where the old left still believe in the virtues of a centrally planned economy, the utopian left consist mainly of people who have developed a vague vision of an agrarian socialist society.
What is really striking, however, is the resemblance of the green movement to revolutionary miilenarianism — with one crucial difference: the top echelon of the green movement consists largely of intellectuals, the spoiled and selfish offspring of an affluent and indulgent capitalist society.
One thing is certain: green utopians will continue to have successes against economic growth until the masses are made aware that it is their welfare, their jobs, their living standards and their families tjhat are being sacrificed to satisfy the greens utopian fantasy.

 The Left Green Network
The call stated that single-issue reformism was directing the green movement's energy into futile attempts to patch up capitalism with cosmetic regulations instead of replacing it with economic democracy.
Left Greens launched an effort to educate themselves and others, to support developing community and workplace opposition to those forces in academia, the media, political movements (including the greens) and in political authority that support capital in all its deformation.
At Green gatherings and at a series of LGN conferences, we have exploredsuch topics as electoral politics, reformism, our conception of a nonmarket, postcapitalist society, and how Left Greens can help to achieve such a society.

 Bear Left!: Green Sickness
The Green Party has taken a great deal of flak from Democratic activists who are rightfully miffed at its role in sending the 2000 presidential election into overtime.
However, the Greens undid themselves with their lack of organization: they could not get the paperwork together in time to show the requisite 6,000 donations to qualify for the state funding.
According to the Green party web site, the Greens are contesting only seven of the two hundred races for state representative or state senator.

 Halfbakery: Flashing red left-turn arrow
At one of these intersections, a motorist turning left across an on-coming traffic lane is required to give way to the traffic on such a lane but may proceed without interruption when no such traffic is apparent.
Additionally, a motorist expecting to turn left is allowed to enter the intersection before the way is clear for him to proceed, provided he does not actually enter or cross the on-coming lane until it is safe to do so.
If one is not allowed to enter an intersection to make a left turn until one can be assured of being able to complete the maneuver immediately, then many intersections without turn arrows will become completely impassible during much of the day.

 James J. Hughes 1989 " Beyond Bookchinism" Socialist Review, 89(3): 103-110.
The left should be deeply grateful to Bookchin for taking on the burden of critiquing the murky depths of Green political philosophy, and I believe the issues he has raised cut to the core of modern political dilemmas.
While many of the anti-intellectual New Agers in Green politics have dismissed the social ecology/deep ecology debate as simply an example of the left's self-defeating sectarianism and hair-splitting, it was precisely this sort of anti-intellectualism that led the sixties' student movement to adopt an "all-friends-on-the-left" policy-until it collapsed under the weight of its own contradictions.
The next left needs not only to achieve the "good," but to determine what the "good" is. In my opinion, the religious progressives have more to say on this than any other group on the left.

Drivers are accustomed to seeing left turn signals that operate with a green arrow which is followed by an amber arrow, then by a red arrow.
A five-section left turn signal is used to show the usual green arrow for a fully protected movement, which is then followed by the amber warning arrow.
The "protected/permissive" type of left turn phasing is designed to help minimize delays by eliminating the red arrow and allowing vehicles to turn on the green ball after opposing traffic has cleared.

 Green left to ponder 'what' and 'if' (phillyBurbs.com) | Mike Sielski
From there, though, the Detroit Pistons pulled away for a 97-92 win and a 3-games-to-1 lead in the series, and so Green was left to chew on the hardest two words in the world: what and if.
In a way, it was stunning that he was on the court at all in those final seconds of regulation, that with the Sixers trailing by one point he was out there to back-rim a 3-pointer, chase down his own rebound, and coax a cheap foul from Chauncey Billups.
On July 28, 1992, his 11th birthday, Green was standing at the bottom of the steep, slanted driveway of his parents' house in Detroit when his younger brother, Martin, began fiddling with the gear shift of the family van.
