Happy New Year, Green Software Practitioners! Green Software Brighton are back for our first event of 2026 with an excellent talk from Alexander Dawson all about the Web Sustainability Guidelines. Do you work in Web? Are you concerned about how to minimise the environmental impacts of the sites you create? Do you wish there were guidelines so you don't have to start from scratch? Then this talk is for you! Alex has been integral to creating these guidelines within the W3C, the body which has produced similar standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) which are now internationally recognised. The guidelines are broken down into different areas covering UX, web development, hosting & infrastructure and strategy & product management, so they cover many roles in the website creation lifecycle. Check out the Green Software Brighton [website](https://greensoftwarebrighton.co.uk/) for links to previous talks. Arrive from 18:00 for pizza and drinks. Event will start at 18:30. We always head for a drink and a chat locally afterwards too. --- ***Thank you to Runway East for use of their space to host our events and to Silicon Brighton and the Green Software Foundation for supporting us.***

Half of the group \(mixed gender\) will stay in a fixed place and the other half of the group \(mixed gender\) will be asked to rotate\. During these intervals\, each pair of people will get the opportunity to talk to each other\. \- Silvia will be hosting the evening and she will organize the fast friending process\. She will indicate when you should move to the next person\. \- From 8\.30 onwards we will stop the system and people will have to chance go chat and interact with those they have met as well as others\. If you are a bit shy or anxious then please come early. Silvia will help you meet other members in a small group and help you settle down and get comfortable. All attendees are also welcome to bring a lady friend along with them for free. This will make it a lot less stressful for you as you will always have your friend alongside. \- We are not a close knit tight group\.

You will naturally gel with others of your own age range and so you will always find many attendees who fit your range\. \- We are not a dating group\.

Please do not attend our event if a perfect gender balance is important for your enjoyment of our meet\-up\. Why do we have tickets? 1.

### Monthly Group Mentoring on Prosperity **with Rev. Honi Borden & Michael Abramson** This Monthly Group Mentoring on Prosperity is a sacred, ongoing space for individuals who desire to **Align with the Frequency of Prosperous Beingness** as guided and embodied by Rev. Honi Borden and Michael Abramson. Prosperity is not something to acquire—it is a **state of being** already available through God Almighty. Within this mentorship, participants are lovingly and powerfully guided to **tune into the frequency of prosperity from within**, experience its presence internally, and recognize how it naturally seeks to express itself through their life. As you align with this Prosperous Beingness, you will: * Experience what prosperity **feels like** on the inside—peace, trust, sufficiency, divine flow * Gain clarity on what prosperity **looks like** when lived in alignment with God’s design * Discover **practical, actionable steps** to allow more prosperity into your daily life, work, service, and relationships * Release unconscious limitations that restrict the natural flow of God’s blessings This **embodied, frequency-based mentorship** is designed to support the integration of prosperity into your consciousness, choices, and lived experience—so prosperity becomes a natural expression of who you are, rather than something you strive for. It is for individuals who truly desire to **live their highest and greatest purpose-filled life**—a life led by God, designed to **impact lives, uplift humanity, and serve with meaning and integrity**. In this space, prosperity becomes the natural fuel for service, generosity, and inspired contribution. When we live aligned with the Prosperous Beingness God has placed within us, our lives become a blessing—not only to ourselves, but to the world. This mentoring is an invitation to live from that truth. It meets last Wednesday of every month with group of Dedicated, Devoted & Desciplined individuals that have a Deep Desire To FullFill Their Life's Purpose By Being Truly Prosperous In Every Way. *** ✨ **DETAILS** 🗓 **Last Wednesday of each month** ⏰ **2:00 PM EST** 📍 **Live on Zoom** (Replay provided if Zoom is missed) 💎 **Investment:** $188 USD • 1st Tier Ascension Alchemy Members Price: $100 USD To Register, please email: Info@AscensionAlchemists.com so we can provide you with the link for payment and all the details. *(Please enter the amount manually)* EMAIL: Info@AscensionAlchemists.com To Register

**PLEASE EMAIL - Michael Abramson at abramson7@gmail.com to RSVP** Step into a space where growth, presence, and conscious evolution are not just ideas, but lived experiences. *Conscious Evolved Men* is a monthly online community designed for men ready to step fully into their divine power, purpose, and authenticity as a living practice. Each month, we explore a transformative topic—ranging from awareness, trust, and emotional mastery to integrity, devotion, and conscious leadership. After a short, powerful teaching, you’ll engage in practical exercises that honor your journey, cultivate self-awareness, and strengthen the way you show up in your relationships, career, and life. This is more than a Zoom call—it’s a brotherhood of men committed to supporting one another in becoming the best version of themselves. Through guided practices, shared reflections, and conscious dialogue, you’ll leave each session feeling empowered, aligned, and more connected to your highest self. Whether you’re seeking clarity, growth, or connection with like-minded men, *Conscious Evolved Men* is your monthly opportunity to consciously evolve in a safe, inspiring, and heart-centered space. **Join us on Thurs. Jan 22nd at 8pm EST and take the next step in your journey of The Conscious Evolved Man**
