Western Reserve Brewing Promotes Environmental Cooperation

(CLEVELAND, OH) - Standing at the forefront of ecological advocacy, Western Reserve Brewing is proud to host an evening with Gunter Pauli entitled "Brewers, Bakers and Mushroom Makers" from 5:30 to 8:00 PM on Friday, November 17, 2000, in cooperation with The Cleveland Green Building Coalition.

Gunter Pauli is the Founder and current Director of Zero Emissions Research and Initiatives (ZERI), a not-for-profit organization based in Switzerland, which is associated with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP.) Currently ZERI is pioneering various methods for the utilization of brewery byproducts.

The Cleveland Green Building Coalition, organizers of the evening, will be gathering a group of 30 to 40 bakers and mushroom farmers at the Western Reserve Brewery, to meet with Mr. Pauli and discuss the various ways the three groups may interact to form the nucleus of an environmentally sustainable business model. Andrew Craze, Western Reserve Brewing's President and Brewmaster also serves as the President of the Northern Ohio Craft Brewers' Association (NOCBA), and will be inviting brewers from the greater Cleveland area to participate in the discussions.

There will be a brief presentation on the cutting-edge work being stimulated by ZERI around the world in the production of beer, bread, mushrooms and other products. The evening will also provide a unique opportunity to network with others in the area who are interested in such a cooperative venture.

For information regarding participation in this presentation, please contact Sadhu Johnson, Director, Cleveland Green Building Coalition at 216-732-3385 or e-mail clevelandgbc@earthlink.net
