Green Drinks - Quad Cities


Purpose: Green Drinks began in London, UK in 1989 as an informal way for environmentalists to gather to talk about important issues. Green Drinks groups soon sprang up around the world. There are now over 700 chapters. Green Drinks - Quad Cities was established by the PACG Environmental Forum and they presented their first Green Drinks on March 28, 2019.
Group Facilitators: Susan Leuthauser, Shirley Johnson and Lori McCollum. You can link to Susan's email by clicking on her name to ask questions or become more involved. 
Meetings: Green Drinks presentations are the first Thursday of each month at 5:00 pm on Zoom or in person. These vary depending on the subject matter for that meeting.
Facebook Group: To see our Green Drinks offerings, please join (and Like) our Environmental Forum Facebook group.
