Eco-Conservatism

Eco-Conservatism, Green conservatism, or shortened to GreenCon, is an environmentalist, culturally center-right to right wing and moderately authoritarian ideology who is the child of Environmentalism and  Conservatism. GreenCon believes that the preservation of natural habitat and the preservation of the cultural heritage of a nation are complimentary notions as they both involve conserving of the elements of the past. Economically Eco-Conservatism is variable as he can range from a Paternalistic Conservative notion of using collective force to preserve the nation's cultural heritage to an  Eco-Capitalist notion of believing that market desire for eco-friendly products, tendency towards using the least resources possible for a single product and property not wanting their property polluted naturally leading to a healthier environment.

Personality and Behaviour
GreenCon acts in a similar vein to his father, but with the added trait of just loving the nature around him. He gets absolutely defensive over public parks and will get rather furious at anyone who talks shit about them. GreenCon also dislikes skyscrapers being built.
