AEC Green Drinks: Alabama Resilience Center
November 21, 2024 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
Join us for our next Green Drinks at our EAT Sustainability partner Rojo Thursday, November 21, 5:30-6:30 p.m. in their side room! Talk will begin promptly at 5:45.
We’re excited to welcome our guest speaker, Roald Hazelhoff, who’s working with us as an Education Advisor. Learn about our newest big initiative—finding a new home for Southern Environmental Center, which will now be called the Alabama Resilience Center (ARC). With its focus on climate change, ARC will provide a unique setting for experiential learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills related to flood mitigation, increasing heat waves/droughts, and air quality issues. It will be the first of its kind in Alabama that seeks to instill a sense of environmental stewardship among K-12 audiences, government entities, and the general public, inspiring future generations to address pressing ecological challenges and develop innovative solutions for sustainable urban development.
Free & open to the public! Chips & dips provided. $10 suggested donation to support our mission. Rojo has happy hour specials til 6 p.m. + all margaritas are $1 off all day on Thursdays!
