Blog : The GA Has a Crush On YOU: February Newsletter Highlights Members Old and New Alike, Makes For Passable Valentine

By sarah | Feb 28, 2009 | in

As many of you already know, the GA's Frebruary newsletter has been sent out. It was the first for many of our new members (including everyone at Cornerstone!), the sixth -- and dare I say best -- installment for those of you around since last July's humble beginnings, and, for still others, perhaps, a half-way decent -- though belated -- Green Valentine.

Among the many exciting updates, happenings, and profiles:

  • Every one's favorite brewpub, the Portsmouth Brewery, and their ongoing drive to to prove that succesful and sustainable do in fact go pint-filled hand in pint-filled hand.
  • The enormously successful and well-attended Green Drinks / Green Alliance "Green Speed Dating" / networking event held at said Brewery earlier in the month, which drew over 100 GA members, local activists, and prospective partners alike.
  • Seacoast radio staple 92.5, "The River" joins the Green Alliance, becoming one of only a handful of radio stations nation wide to become almost exclusively solar-powered.
  • UNH's upstart Energy Club -- 57 members strong and growing.
  • Local composting duo Rian Bedard and Eva Christensen, and their campaign to make composting a priority for all Portsmouth restaurants.
  • Dover bio-fuel outlet Simply Green wants your unused cellphones!
