San Francisco is pushing dry cleaners to go green.  We have covered Green Dry Cleaning in the past. Wet cleaning or non toxic CO2 cleaning is the way to go and we salute San Francisco for emphasizing this.

Many ”green’ dry cleaners switched to a hydrocarbon solvent because it can be used in the same machines they currently own.  The problem is that the solvent contains suspected carcinogenic and known neurotoxin chemicals. San Francisco is pushing for truth is advertising.

In San Francisco, Pacific Heights Cleaners and SF Green Clean are two recommended cleaners.

The ultimate goal is not to buy clothes that require dry cleaning.
