Description: We are a local extension of an international movement (started in 1987 in the UK, got to love the British for thinking ahead) that has chapters in 488 plus cities worldwide.
This isn’t a networking event, but more like a neighborhood house party for “green” thinkers and doers. There’s no agenda – it’s just a chance to meet, chat, debate, socialize and connect with others on the Emerald Coast who are passionate about the environment.
We are not associated with any political, corporate or government groups in any way (although they’re more than welcome to come…as is anybody.)
We come from all ages & backgrounds; everyone and anyone with an interest in sustainability are welcome. We represent non-profit organizations, academia, government, small business, big business, self-employed, volunteers, students, concerned citizens…and everything in between. Whether you’re involved in green building & design, sustainable energy, organic gardening, or organic pet products …you’ll find like-minded people here.

Dress Code: What is a dress code! T-Shirt, suit or shorts, just come.
GD’ers are welcome to display business cards, brochures, info sheets, magazines & newsletters on our little,”green” table at the events. However, we must insist you bring no more than three and take them all away when you leave.
You don’t even have to drink to be a Green Drinker!

Over the coming months let’s try some new things ensuring Green Drinks is an engaging experience for everyone. If you have any suggestions or would like to lend a hand, email gddestin@gmail.com or talk to Dana at the next event.

What About Our Meetings?

Second THURSDAY of each month; somewhere new each time, HOWEVER we may enjoy a place so much we’ll return for more. The meetings always start at 5:30pm and end whenever everyone is gone.

Description: Every month people who work in the environmental field meet up at informal sessions known as Green Drinks.

We have a lively mixture of people from NGOs, academia, government and business. 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 also for making new contacts. Everyone invites someone else along, so there’s always a different crowd, making Green Drinks an organic, self-organising network.

These events are very simple and unstructured, but many people have found employment, made friends, developed new ideas, done deals and had moments of serendipity. It\’s a force for the good and we\’d like to help it spread to other cities. Contact your local node to get the latest info about coming along.

If there is no Green Drinks near you, you might want to set up a Green Drinks in your City.
