About us
Every month people who either work in or are interested in environmental and sustainability issues, meet up at informal sessions known as Green Drinks.
We have a lively mixture of people from NGOs, academia, government, business and more. Come along and you'll be made welcome. Just say, "are you green?" and we will look after you and introduce you to whoever is there. It's a great way of catching up with people you know and making new contacts. Everyone invites someone else along, so there’s always a different crowd, making Green Drinks an organic, self-organizing network.
The Huntsville group currently meets on the last Wednesday of the month while the weather is decent. We currently meet on the Clinton Street patio of Yellowhammer Brewing.
