Green Drinks is a national an international, monthly gathering of people who are interested in all things green (green as in environmentally green, not the color green, but I am sure there are gatherings for that too.)
Pittsburgh has a very active Green Drinks group that meets the 3rd Friday of every month.
The host for June is Braddock’s Mayor John Fetterman
John Fetterman will share with us his new launch in converting the Mon Valley’s steelmaking heart into the Greenest Place in the Pittsburgh area by converting the Enterprise Zone into a Green Enterprise Zone. In addition to his unique economic development approach, his sustainable methods include reuse of existing structures as major agents of economic conversion for his community.
