So, last Friday I decided to take the dive and start a meet up group focused on getting people outside into our parks throughout the Lower Mainland doing something constructive to conserve the environment!

I contacted a whole bunch of non-profits, charities and Metro Vancouver and arranged 10 events (all the way till Sept 25th 2011) to:

Green Drinks, tomorrow Aug 15, 2007 from 5.45pm onwards at Steamworks next to Waterfront Station Vancouver. For more info about Green Drinks go to:

I'm one of the organizers of Green Drinks. I just wanted to add a quick note that Green Drinks - which is a great place to meet like-minded environmentalists, network and exchange ideas- is on April 18th, 2007 5.45pm onwards at Steamworks (next to Waterfront Station downtown Vancouver).

Well, the gist of it is... since I graduated with a degree in Environmental Studies in 2002 (my focus was on the influences of responsible environmental behaviour) I haven't found my "dream job". I worked at a couple of non-profit orgs in Toronto and then decided to move to Vancouver in 2003. Still didn't find anything here in Vancouver that really made me excited. I volunteered at a bunch of enviro orgs but unfortunately.. its a tough field to break into and find a good job that fits - I guess its difficult to find a job that makes you happy in any field.
