At parks across San Francisco, aka "North America's Greenest City," last year's Earth Day celebrators showed their true colors-and green wasn't one of them. Despite April 22 being devoted to protecting the planet, partiers at some of the city's iconic parks left behind mounds of litter, including empty liquor bottles, beer cans, plastic bags and other trash. Disgusted residents who live near the parks sent photos of the aftermath to local publications. Fellow Bay Area residents who viewed the photos online added that more heaps of trash could be found in areas not shown in the images. Others argued the real issue is a less-than-adequate number of trash cans.
