CSS Variables or Inhertage ?

I think this is not a good idea

What you're wanting here is more an "CSS Inheritage".
It's a very good feature to ask, but this is not in links with variables :-)

What about a synthax like :

    selector1 {
        color: green;
    }

    selector2 {
       /* I think we can't get any problem since
           a selector can't contains any ";" but if it's
           needed, we can use another syntax.
       */
       inherits: selector1;
    }

Or

    @selector-base {
       selector-name: s1;
       color: green;
    }

    selector2 {
       inherits: s1;
    }
