What is Green Drinks?

Green Drinks Manila is the Philippine chapter of the international Green Drinks network, set to launch in October-November 2024. Part of a global movement spanning over 400 cities, Green Drinks Manila serves as a space for environmentalists, advocates, and eco-conscious individuals to gather in a relaxed and informal setting. It’s a community-driven platform where titles, politics, and hierarchies fade, allowing genuine connections to form around the shared mission of saving the planet.

Through regular meetups, Green Drinks Manila aims to nurture collaboration, spark innovation, and build a supportive network that empowers everyone to contribute toward sustainability. Whether you're an experienced environmentalist or just beginning your eco-journey, Green Drinks Manila is open to all, fostering meaningful conversations and actionable ideas that pave the way for a more sustainable future.
