Blog : Portsmouth GreenDrinks makes their own New Year's resolution: more faces, more speakers, and more drinks!

By Jim Cavan | Dec 31, 2009 | in

With the dawning of a fresh decade, Portsmouth GreenDrinks is making some New Year’s resolutions of its own: more new faces, more engaging and dynamic speakers from all across the green universe, and -- to everyone's joy -- more drinks for all!

What won’t be changing is the venue; the gathering will continue to keep its home at Two Ceres Street in downtown Portsmouth (across from the Dolphin Striker). However the dinner menu will be expanded to include a number of special GreenDrinks eats and new discounted drink offerings every week.

Starting in January, GreenDrinks will be posting its list of speakers months in advance. Presenters through April Include: Eco Artist Tim Gaudreau (1/21); Revision Energy and the Seacoast Renewable Energy Initiative (2/18); Goodwill Industries (3/18); Timberland Sustainability Director Betsy Blaisdale (4/15). The group also plans on engaging people on the street before the event to bring new faces and new voices to the already growing chorus of local greenies.

Portsmouth GreenDrinks, which meets the third Thursday of every month, is one of over 600 GreenDrinks held in cities and communities across the globe, and offers a lively mixture of people from NGOs, academia, government and business leaders from across the community.
