| WASHINGTON — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) WaterSense program has launched its national “We’re for Water” campaign to encourage Americans to make simple choices that save water, according to a press release. The program, in collaboration with its partner, American Water, will spread the word about saving water by traveling cross-country, stopping at national landmarks and educating consumers about WaterSense labeled products. WaterSense products use about 20 percent less water than standard models, the release stated. “Whether by replacing an old, inefficient plumbing fixture with a WaterSense labeled product or adopting more water-efficient behaviors, together we can help save water for future generations,” said Peter Silva, assistant administrator for EPA’s Office of Water. “WaterSense offers consumers simple tips that can help the environment and keep money in their pockets.” To read the entire article, click here.
