From August to October, the WaterSavers® Tour stopped in three markets across the Southeast United States to tell car owners and their families why they should Go Pro for H2O. The tour, part of a public education campaign by the International Carwash Association® (ICA), spread the word that professional car washes use less water than driveway washing and keep harmful chemicals out of the water supply too.

Lima may be the world’s second driest capital city after Cairo, but its residents don’t act like they live in a desert. On average, Limeños use 250 litres of water a day – double that of European Union residents and 2.5 times as much as their peers in dusty Cairo.
