San Francisco has pioneered many green initiatives from hybrid taxis to a ban on plastic bags, and the city has a stellar reputation for trying out things that will benefit the world at large.

So hoping to capitalize on SF’s green obsession, the San Francisco Convention and Visitors Bureau has just coined a new word for you: “Ecothusiasm.” The office has even devoted a section of its website to visitors who want to plan a green adventure in and around the city.

From eco-conscious meetings at the Moscone Center to environmentally friendly trips that involve the use of public transportation, the website offers solutions to travelers worried about their carbon footprint. There’s even a blog, Eco411, where you can stay up-to-date on all the city’s environmentally sound planning and development.
