YOU CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE AND SHOW YOUR SUPPORT.
TAKE THE PUREGREEN PLEDGE AND
BECOME A PUREGREEN INDIVIDUAL MEMBER.
- I pledge to save water at my home so I can help foster a sustainable future with Pureology & Green Cross International:
- I will fix leaky faucets and toilets – a small leak from a faucet can waste 50 gallons of water a day and a leaky toilet can waste 260 gallons a day.
- I will always wash full loads of clothes and dishes – washing machines use 30 to 60 gallons of water for the wash cycle.
- I will install high efficiency showerheads, faucets and toilets – high efficiency showerheads, which cost about $15, can reduce water use by 50%; water efficient toilets use 50 to 80% less water.
- I will water lawns and gardens in the evening or early in the morning to avoid excessive evaporation – on average, about 35% of household water goes to tending yards.
- I will use fertilizers and pesticides sparingly and carefully – residential use of pesticides accounts for about 8% of all pesticide applications, urban runoff accounts for about 14% of common water pollution and just over half of that is due to residential use of fertilizers.
- I will ask my hairdresser to turn off the tap while shampooing or conditioning my hair.
- I will recycle empty Pureology bottles to minimize waste in our landfills.
