Just call The Chronicle at (415) 777-7777 to place an ad -- and be sure to ask about SuperSaver rates. Does the Chronicle contain recycled paper? Yes. While there is no Federal Law requiring the use of recycled newsprint, California state law mandates that 50% of the newsprint used must contain at least 40% recycled fiber content. 2001 was the last year in the gradual increase of state mandated recycled content (from 30% when the law began in 1994 to the current cap of 50%). The percentage of newsprint (with at least 40% recycled fiber content) used by the San Francisco Chronicle: - 53% in 2005 - 60% in 2004 - 56% in 2003 - 50% in 2002 - 50% in 2001 - 45% in 2000 - 40% in 1998 - 35% in 1996 - 30% in 1994 The San Francisco Chronicle is produced using the flexographic printing process. The "flexographic" process, unlike the "offset" process used by the majority of other papers (USA Today, NY Times, LA Times, etc.) is known for its inherent environmental benefits. These benefits include (a) the use of water based inks (eliminating the need for petroleum-based cleaners and extenders, eliminating ink rub-off and set-off, reduced show through, etc.) and (b) the ability to use lighter basis-weight (thinner) newsprint. Offset uses 30 lb and 32 lb newsprint, while flexo uses 27.7 lb newsprint. Our newsprint comes from the Pacific Northwest and Canada, and it is produced from wood chips and other by-products of the lumber/timber industries. Trees are not cut-down specifically for newsprint. As stated earlier, our ink is water-based and is environmentally friendly. The pigments used to color the inks are free of heavy metals and toxic products. We are completely safe to use as compost. What can I do with the Chronicle plastic delivery bags? At this time, the Chronicle does not collect used newspaper bags. If you have any suggestions for how to reuse the bags or places that recycle them, please send us feedback . Some readers tell us that they reuse the bags in the following ways: - doggie pickup - collecting and disposing of snails and slugs from their yard - taking home food scraps from their work place for their compost and/or worm bins - diaper disposal The poly news bags used by The San Francisco Chronicle are designed to protect the newspaper, assuring that it arrives to customers dry and protected from the elements. The plastic used has to be able to draw down to the thin gauge films used in news bags, and withstand certain abrasion and impact stresses due to the newspaper being thrown from moving cars and skidding along a driveway. The Chronicle bags are classified with the recycling code (4) LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene). Used in many film applications, this plastics family includes the LDPE's (Linear Low Density Polyethylene) that are used to produce the poly news bags, garbage bags and ice cream container lids. LDPE's (4) provide the best combination of the toughness, abrasion resistance, elasticity, and excellent seal strength needed for news bags. Unfortunately, many Bay Area recycling programs will not accept (4) LDPE materials. The more commonly recyclable bags are (2) HDPE. These can be tough, but have a tendency to straight-line tear (once a hole starts, it tends to increase rapidly in size), and are limited in the amount of weight they will hold for a high-impact use like news bags. HDPE can also tend to be weak at the seal. The LDPE's (4) are the industry standard for the newspaper poly bags. Sign me up!
