"Environmentally conscious living requires understanding the relationships between what we consume, how we work, travel, create and the natural world. Environmentally conscious living does not mean that every choice we make will be the most green, instead it means that we are informed about our behavior and therefore have the opportunity to grow and live with intention."
Green Map
"The San Francisco Green Map will connect current and future San Franciscans with their local urban environment and provide practical ways city residents can make more sustainable choices and be stewards of the land on which they live and work.
Many San Francisco residents are unaware of the multitude of projects aimed at increasing sustainability taking place in our city. From the alternative fuel public transit vehicles to battery recycling bins at drug stores to residential composting programs and solar panels on public housing, San Francisco is a hotbed of green activity. With so much going on, however, it is difficult to find one location to learn about all these things. The San Francisco Green Map will provide a single information resource for the myriad local environmental initiatives, programs, issues and services."
