Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego Launches 'Save Water Pledge' to Promote Water Conservation
Mayor Kate Gallego is excited to announce the launch of the "Save Water Pledge," a new initiative designed to bolster the City's water conservation efforts amidst a severe drought. Starting May 1, 2024, and continuing through April 30, 2025, the campaign, which is part of a broader initiative to ensure Phoenix remains a sustainable desert city, encourages participants to commit to practical water-saving actions.
"Water is the lifeblood of our community here in Phoenix, and conserving this precious resource is more crucial now than ever," said Mayor Gallego. "The Save Water Pledge is not just a campaign; it's a commitment we make today for a sustainable tomorrow. I urge every Phoenix resident to join us in this vital effort."
The "Save Water Pledge" includes simple yet effective measures that Phoenix residents can adopt to reduce water usage, such as fixing leaks, utilizing water-efficient appliances, and adopting smart watering practices that reflect seasonal weather conditions. Participants can sign up through the City's Save Water page, phoenix.gov/savewaterpledge, where they can also find resources and tips for reducing water usage.
The campaign is set to feature various educational resources and community events designed to raise awareness about water conservation techniques and the importance of water sustainability. Residents who sign up for the pledge will receive regular updates and tips on how to conserve water.
