Pledge to Conserve - For Hometown Prides and Prizes

Will you pledge to conserve water this month? If so, you and your city could both be winners.

Before the end of April, just click on mywaterpledge.com and make a series of online pledges as part of the Wyland National Mayor’s Challenge for Water Conservation. Cities with the most pledges in each of five population categories will win. And participants from winning cities will be entered to receive hundreds of environmentally friendly prizes, such as $5,000 for home utilities, water-saving fixtures and home improvement gift cards.

Irvine is in it to win it. “I am hopeful that what is a short-term challenge for our residents becomes a long-term practice of conservation,” Mayor Donald P. Wagner said. For more information, see cityofirvine.org.
