Green Inumin is not usually a group that gathers to drink green beer. Ngunit sa St. Patrick’s Day in some Canadian cities, Ang iyong inumin ay maaaring maging kasing berde bilang iyong pulitika.

Itinatag sa UK halos dalawang dekada na ang nakaraan, Green Drinks is a monthly get-together for people who are interested in sustainability issues.

Many members work in the environmental arena (and use the group as a networking opportunity), but many simply enjoy meeting and chatting with other folks who are concerned about green issues.

As the Toronto chapter says, they’re “Save ng Mundo, One Sip at a Time.”

There are Green Drinks chapters in nearly 50 countries and in ang lahat ng mga pangunahing Canadian lungsod.Â

Here’s the St. Patrick’s Day Green Drinks lineup at several locales across Canada:

Vancouver: Mula sa 5:45 pm sa Steamworks Pub, 375 Tubig Street sa Gastown

Toronto: Mula sa 5:30 pm sa Brooklynn Bar, 1186 Queen Street West, 1 block west of the Drake Hotel

Thunder Bay (SA): 5-7 pm sa Ruby Moon, 10 Hukuman Street South

Courtenay (Vancouver Island, BC): 5:30-7 pm sa Ang yungib sa Union Street ihaw, 477 5ika Street

Many other Canadian cities — kasama Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, Halifax, Otawa, Kitchener-Waterloo, at London (SA) — have active Green Drinks groups, even if they’re not having a St. Patrick’s Day get-together.
