Try this instead :)

<style>
footer {
    color: green;
  }
  footer {
    color: orange;
  }
</style>

And if that does not work, try this!

<style>
footer p {
    color: green;
  }
  footer p {
    color: orange;
  }
</style>

But you should only specify the footer color once, because the second code where you specify orange, will overwrite the other one. so the color will not be green it will be orange! :)

Hope this helps!
