I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will organize or participate in a volunteer litter clean up to keep trash from entering our storm drains and waterways.

I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will create 2 rain garden(s), bioswale(s), or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.

I will discover the power of my community working together by completing the WNMC Pledge and pledging to save 50. gallons of water.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 5 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.
