Pick an Environmentally Friendly Neighborhood
San Francisco is made up of a mosaic of unique neighborhoods that cater to a variety of lifestyles and budgets. Although the housing market is notoriously tight in the area, you can find a community that is suitable for walkers and contains an extensive public transportation system. Undoubtedly one of the best ways that you can do your part to preserve our earth is to choose to live in a place that allows you to ditch driving.

According to WalkScore, San Francisco as a whole welcomes walkers and public transportation enthusiasts. It rates Lower Nob Hill, Chinatown, and Downtown-Union Square as particularly walking-friendly neighborhoods.

Donate Your Previously Loved Stuff
One of the fantastic things about moving is that it forces you to notice all of the stuff overflowing in your closets and drawers. Be kind to yourself and the earth by donating the items that you no longer love to charity. Many worthwhile organizations require a steady supply of donated goods to stock the resale shops that fund their excellent work.
