Lawrenceville, GA - Walmart Converts Sinks To Help GA Drought Conditions

Who says, Walmart doesn't care.  In an effort to minimize their impact on the environment, Walmart has converted thousands of sinks and toilets in the 109 Walmart and Sam's Club Stores to save water.  

In an article in the Gwinnett Daily, Michael Mills, the regional director of Coporate Affairs for Walmart said he expected the changes will amount to a 17 to 20 percent reduction in water usage... or rather 53 MILLION gallons annually.  

"We wanted to minimize our impact on the drought of Georgia." Mills said.  "Hopefully, we'll set an example for other businesses."

Mills stated, also in the article that Walmart has been moving toward sustainable designs and systems for several years now.

Special Thanks to Arielle Kass who wrote the original article.
