What: January Tacoma Green Drinks Where: BLRB Architects - 1250 Pacific Avenue. Suite 700. Tacoma When: Jan 7 - 5.30 - 7.30 PM Why: Have fun and learn! (apologies for the duplicate, but the original email omitted the date) Details: What do beer cans, car tires and water bottles have in common? Not much unless you’re renegade architect Michael Reynolds, in which case they are tools of choice for producing thermal mass and energy-independent housing. For 30 years New Mexico-based Reynolds and his green disciples have devoted their time to advancing the art of “Earthship Biotecture” by building self-sufficient, off-the-grid communities where design and function converge in eco-harmony. Join us at this film ($5 suggested donation) showing of "Garbage Warrior" to hear from a panel of experts on Earthships, green building, and stick-to-it-ness that makes radically sustainable building possible.

We meet on the first Thursday of the month and feature different community members engaged in compelling environmental issues. While we're not highly structured, each meeting has a theme, a guest host, and time for Q&A and socializing. Come along and you'll be made welcome. It's a great way of catching up with people you know and also for making new contacts. -- Like us on Facebook! <https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=86050006565&fref=ts>
