Yuck!
 Today's blue skies will give way to clouds and snow tonight. But be prepared for tomorrow morning, when the white stuff will get messy as freezing rain and sleet move through the region. The morning commute will be slippery — drive careful! |

'Green Drinks' Group Meets in Pittsfield - January 08, 2008
PITTSFIELD - Pittsfield Green Drinks is a very informal gathering, open to everyone with any environmental interest.
On the third Tuesday of each month, the group gathers at 5:15 at the Pittsfield Brew Works, 34 Depot St. The next Green Drinks will be held Tuesday, Jan. 15. Anyone interested in environmental issues, from the climate crisis to land preservation, or from wildlife habitat to recycling, is invited to join the gathering. Green Drinks is sponsored by the Center for Ecological Technology and the Berkshire Environmental Action Team.
Green Drinks is an international forum in which people who work in the environmental field meet for a beer and snacks at informal sessions. There is usually a mix of people from nonprofit organizations, academia, government and business. These networking events are very simple and unstructured.
For more information, contact Jamie Cahillane at CET at 413-445-4556, Ext. 14, or Jane Winn at BEAT at jane@thebeatnews.org or 413-230-7321. |
