CV Water Counts Hosts: “Water Guzzlers or Water Gurus?”

Message from CV Water Counts:

A Discussion About Sustainable Water Use Technology
in Water-Dependent Industries

As part of Desert Garden Community Day, Saturday, October 28, CV Water Counts (www.cvwatercounts.com) will present on this timely topic that will help attendees better understand what the golf and agriculture industries are really doing to address sustainable uses of water in drought–susceptible California. Additionally, there will be discussion about emerging water use technology for homes and businesses.
 
The program begins at 12:45 pm at UCR Palm Desert, 75-080 Frank Sinatra Drive, Palm Desert. This is a free event! Desert Garden Day is presented by Desert Horticultural Society of the Coachella Valley, and co-hosted with UCR Palm Desert.
 
“When you fly over the Colorado Desert Communities of the Coachella Valley, you quickly note vast regions covered with agriculture and golf courses. Many discussions have been raised about sustainable growth as it pertains to water not only in a drought-susceptible state such as California, but also in the middle of a desert,” notes John Soulliere, spokesperson for CV Water Counts, and Mission Springs Water District’s Conservation and Public Affairs Officer. Adds Soulliere, “CV Water Counts regional conservation group will host a panel from three industries known for their dependence on water to shed light on contemporary practices that have moved historic “water-guzzler” industries over to sustainable “water-guru” industries.”
