Meetup is About Common Interests

Building a support system for your green living aspirations is a roadblock that I hear about often, when readers write to me. Our numbers are still few, making it tough to help others relate to our goals. Meeting like-minded new friends is sometimes your best approach to creating relationships that will help you survive your efforts, despite the challenges that might get in the way.


Enter Meetup.com. This website is a terrific place to find folks who are interested in most anything you might be--not just green living or eating organic. You will find organic food coops there, and groups who have sustainability goals of all kinds. I invite you to poke around their list of available interests, and use their search function to enter your own ideas.


If you don't find what you're looking for, you can join and list it anyway. When a group forms, you can participate. Better yet, you can step up and lead that group in the direction that you and the other members desire. You don't have to wait for someone else; you can form a group and invite your friends.


Comments? What Meetup groups are you involved in already? Which ones did you join when you visited the site? I'd love to hear your news. As Meetup's site says: 

"Do something. Share something.

 Learn something. Change something."
