I do like the concept. I will attend the next Green Drinks on tuesday 31st of March at Palate Palette, in Kuala Lumpur and find out more about it. 

The idea is to gather people who work in the environmental field  at informal sessions known as Green Drinks.

Green Drinks movement describes himself as “a lively mixture of “Green” people from NGOs, academia, government and business. Come along and you’ll be made welcome. Just say, “are you green?” and they 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.“

It is now active in  465 cities worlwide.greendrinks-kl-logo

Green Drinks Kuala Lumpur invites “anyone with an interest in local and international environmental and sustainability issues – all ages, backgrounds and groups – non-profits, academia, government, small business, big business, self-employed, volunteers, students, concerned citizens, curious people… and everything in between.”

Palate Palette is located at 21 Jalan Mesui, off Jalan Nagasari (behind Istana Hotel), in Kuala Lumpur.

Hope to meet some of you guys there.
