What is Green Drinks?
- Green Drinks is an organic, self-organizing network.
- People who work in the environmental field meet up to connect informally- people from NGOs, academia, government and business.
- It’s a great way of catching up with people you know and also for making new
contacts.
- Come along and you’ll be made welcome. We will look after you and introduce
you around.
- Everyone invites someone else along, so please bring a friend.
- Green Drinks is very simple and unstructured, but many people have found employment, made friends, developed new ideas, done deals and had moments of serendipity.
Hosted by Kava Kafe (889-5015), Andrea Dean, LLC (960-3727), Forrest Arnold, Hawaii Green Realty (987-2365)
