Ballarat Green Drinks.

TREES PLANTED

On National Tree Day in July, 60 Ballarat people collected themselves and went off to celebrate the night at their local Green Drinks,  which was held at The Rebellion Brewery in Mair St. [fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” overflow=”visible”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”]

Green Drinks is an international informal ‘get together’ for anyone who is keen to mix it with the best, have a lovely ale or wine and listen to a guest speaker from the environmental field. In Ballarat, it is a monthly event held usually during the first week of the month. In celebration of National Tree Day, Fifteen Trees decided to plant one tree for each person who ‘walked in the door’. As a result, 60 native trees went out to the Ballarat Specialist FARM School in Normal St Ballarat to be planted on the school grounds.

Ballarat Indoor Go Karts have signed up for an ongoing commitment of 28 native trees to be planted monthly to represent the 28 go-karts operating in their centre. This is a great example of thinking creatively, when it comes to running a business with a smaller carbon footprint.
