Dalai Lama sez..."If you have a Green Party, I want to join"

The Dalai Lama was making a presentation at the University of Michigan, and was asked by a graduate student studying sustainability "What is your advice to help us maintain hope given the magnitude of the challenge?"

After explaining that the people all across the world have become more aware of environmental concerns in recent decades, and have organized around environmental concerns into Green Parties across the globe, he asks if there is a Green Party here. The audience chuckles, and the Dalai Lama says "If you have a Green Party, I want to join." I know! Amazing, right?

I messed up with the link to the video. It's working now. Really...check it out. It's way cool. The quote about joining the Green Party is at 2:20 in, and you should be able to pull to that place without having to let the whole thing load.
