Green Party, West Germany.

This is an original propaganda poster for the 1983 German federal election, this poster features a drawing in a childlike style of a rural scene with a house, trees, flowers, and a smiling sun. The prominent German text on the poster, "WIR HABEN DIE ERDE VON UNSEREN KINDERN NUR GEBORGT," translates to "We have only borrowed the earth from our children".

This slogan is a key tenet of the party's platform, which emphasizes environmental sustainability and the responsibility to preserve the planet for future generations. The phrase is often attributed to a proverb from Native American cultures, particularly the Hopi.

Historical Context
