GBRC-2016-rgb_smWhat does coffee have to do with green building? Where do we make most of our coffee? Where do we drink most of our coffee? In buildings. Coffee is a $100 Billion industry. 64% of Americans had at least a cup yesterday.

Greenway Coffee’s David Buehrer will talk about coffee from the supply side. He’s been on the ground where it is grown. He’ll have some samples for you. He knows coffee. Public Citizen’s Stephanie Thomas will talk about the climate and its impact on coffee and chocolate. GBRC Program Director, Steve Stelzer, will hand out his coffee awareness flyer he developed, and talk about how coffee grounds need to get to the soil instead of the landfill.

This event is free and open to the public. Please RSVP to Steve, whose contact information can be found above.
