Drink Up And Save The Environment

by Noel on April 26th, 2007

 Now here is a really interesting piece of news on saving the environment. In Colorado, people have come up with the event “Think Global. Drink Local.” and this slogan is for the Microbrews for the Environment affair.

Microbrews has been running for fifteen years already and it is held at the state’s Boulder Theater. This is where the events are happening and the locals go rocking. And what they do is they drink up their thirst and the money that they are able to collect throughout the entire happening is used for several environment groups. This year, the proceeds go to Everybody Eats!, the CU’s Environmental Center, and the Center for Native Ecosystems.

Mind you, the amount that they are able to raise is not just a small one. In fact, every since the event has been running, they have already been able to collect somewhere in and around $90,000. Imagine that. And the environment is the beneficiary.

Nice thing you got going there people! Keep it up.
