At West Coast Green (Sept. 2007 in San Francisco, CA), I went to a talk about water myths. The presenter (John Koeller) told the room that the EPA is working on a new program, the equivalent of the Energy Star program but this time for water conservation. It's called WaterSense. The products that are going to be include are high-efficiency toilets, landscape irrigation ser vices, bathroom sink faucets, weather- or sensor-based irrigation control technologies, and showerheads. The criteria for each category are still in the works but look for labeled products sometime in 2008.
