Protect Our Waters Pledge |
What is the pledge? |
|
- The pledge describes ten simple things you can do to make a difference. Do your part
by making a personal pledge to protect our waters.
- Your pledge is a commitment to the environment, your health and your neighbors' health. Your steps to
protect our waters today will benefit future generations (from orcas to people) depending on clean water!
- You are probably already doing some of these things in your daily routine, and if so, thank you and keep it up!
But remember – you can always do more or encourage others to be involved, so see how far you can go!
