To reduce my polluted runoff I pledge to:
Use Fertilizer Wisely
☐ Test my soil to know what I really need
☐ Use compost
☐ Use slow-release or organic fertilizer
☐ Follow the fertilizer label
☐ Avoid using fertilizer when heavy rain is predicted
☐ Keep fertilizer off sidewalks or hard surfaces
Handle Pesky Pests Right
☐ Try simple methods first, like washing them off
☐ Use chemical-free pesticides with natural ingredients like neem
☐ Use low toxicity pesticides only as a last resort
Pick Up My Pooch’s Poo
☐ Put the unmentionables in the garbage bin
To reduce my water runoff I pledge to:
Water Smart Outdoors
☐ Let drip irrigation do the work
☐ Make sure sprinklers are watering my lawn—not the sidewalk
☐ Water before 10 a.m. to beat the heat
Plant Pono
☐ Choose native or non-invasive drought-tolerant plants
☐ Choose the “right plant, for the right place”
☐ Put mulch around plants
Install a Rain Garden
☐ Install and capture runoff in this sunken landscape
Car Wash Like A Greenie
☐ Take my car to the car wash, or wash it on my lawn
☐ Host or participate in an ocean-friendly car wash, where the wash water is directed away from storm drains and nontoxic cleaning products are used
To reduce runoff from my community, I pledge to:
Lend a Hand
☐ Show my West Maui pride by pitching in on community projects
