SAN FRANCISCO - San Francisco is the prime city in the nation to forbid non-recyclable plastic bags from use in supermarkets, drugstores and also at other large retailers.By a 10-1 vote, the Board of Supervisors needed the use of recyclable bags. It is felt, which other cities would as well follow San Francisco in this action.It has been predictable that 180 million plastic bags have been terrified into the ocean killing marine life and clogging landfills.

SAN FRANCISCO - Behind Chinatown's gild storefronts, dim sum joints and memento shops are well-known stories - regularly unpleasant ones - of civil rights violations, bigotry and public housing struggles. These are some of the tales Wendell Lin spun on last Saturday.
The 20-year-old guide is one of the high-school and college students who guide Chinatown Alleyway Tours, a two-hour glimpse of the otherwise noisy neighborhood's quieter corners. The program is sponsored by a home nonprofit that works to progress residents' quality of life.
