Mothers who have a keen interest in buying local produce for their families talked to bankers who know that dirty air has economic implications. Doctors who treat people with respiratory diseases chatted with business people who are working to make their companies energy-efficient.
A total of 85 "green-minded" people gathered Feb. 11 at the Blue Vine in downtown Salisbury for the first EnviroMingle© hosted by the Center for the Environment. They came from as far away as Burlington – everyone from an owner of an award-winning "green" screen printing company to newspaper writers and citizens who wanted to know more about sustainable living.
Businesses and organizations in the region have already offered to hold future EnviroMingles©. For more information on the next events, go to EnviroMingle.org.
