If you turn off the water when brushing your teeth it will save as much as 10 gallons of water a day per person.

For a family of 4 that can add up to 14,400 gallons a year!

Why Recycle?

Recycling 1 ton of paper saves 17 trees, 2 barrels of oil (enough to run the average car for 1,260 miles), 4,100 kilowatts of energy (enough power for the average home for 6 months), 3.2 cubic yards of landfill space, and 60 pounds of air pollution.
