The EOC also helps host a monthly get-together called Sustainable Spirits.  This event brings together environmental professionals and enthusiasts for a little fun and networking in a relaxed and informal setting.  It’s free and open to the public.  Check it out!

The AOC partners with NGO’s and other stakeholders to form coalitions, and the AOC participates in the USCC LEAC (Legislative & Environmental Affairs Committee).
