Green Drinks

You can find them at your average bar, nightclub, rowdy disco or rave. Yet beer goggles and vibrating strobe lights make any hippie tough to spot in the crowd. Add an automatic smoke machine and you might as well be playing \"Where\'s Waldo.\" Save yourself the reconnaissance mission and opt for a room full of greenies at Green Drinks, a not-for-profit green networking event that meets monthly in over 300 cities ranging from Sri Lanka to Stillwater, Oklahoma. For a Green Drinks near you visit greendrinks.org.

Outdoors Clubs, Outdoor Love

Most cities boast hiking, biking and boating networks. Join one of your city\'s outdoor interest groups and you\'re bound to meet a bounty of thrill-seeking eco-holics. Bonding over a tough climb or pristine mountain view will heighten the connection and nothing gets the blood pumping—quite literally-like biking or hiking outside.

Eco-Dating Sites

If you\'re eager to find love consider hitting up some eco-singles networks such as GreenSingles.com, EarthwiSesingles.com, GreenFriends.com or GreenPassions.com. After filling out a profile and answering a few simple questions (favorite food, color and Sade song), you’ll get matched with a single you won’t have to debate on the validity of climate change.

Green Volunteer Project

Volunteer at your local oil spill, conservation site or community-garden project. It\'s fun and you\'ll feel good for lifting a finger. Plus you may meet a burly young eco-hunk and nothing breaks the ice like sweaty tree planting. There are endless volunteer opportunities to choose from. Find a mission that mirrors your level of activism (be it mulching or saving the whales) at volunteermatch.org.

Organic Coffee House
