While the U.S. uses more water per person than any other country in the world, 130 million Americans live with severe water scarcity<sup><sup>1 <\/sup><\/sup>at least one month per year. More than that, 1.7 million lack running tap water or a flushable toilet in their homes.<\/p>\n<p>World-champion swimmer Phelps, Colgate&#8217;s global water ambassador since 2017, says, &#8220;I am often asked about my keys to success in the pool and people are surprised to hear how much I talk about doing all the small things as part of my preparation that ultimately have a big impact on performance. \u00a0The same applies to this important &#8220;Save Water&#8221; campaign as the more we can all practice small behavior changes like turning off the faucet while brushing your teeth, the bigger collective impact we can make in conserving our water usage.&#8221; According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, just turning off the faucet while brushing your teeth for two minutes can save about 64 glasses of water.<\/p>\n<p>Phelps and Colgate encouraged people to learn more, share the message, and save water on Earth Day and every day by:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Taking the Save Water pledge at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2441476-1&amp;h=3705776177&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D2441476-1%26h%3D3223013302%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fsmiles.colgate.com%252Fpage%252Fcontent%252Feverydropcounts%26a%3DEveryDropCounts.Colgate.com&amp;a=EveryDropCounts.Colgate.com\" rel=\"nofollow\">EveryDropCounts.Colgate.com<\/a> <\/li>\n<li>Sharing their own water-saving tips on social media and tagging #EveryDropCounts <\/li>\n<li>Following Colgate and the Phelps Family on social media for news, tips and encouragement <\/li>\n<ul type=\"circle\">\n<li><span class=\"xn-person\">Michael Phelps<\/span> on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2441476-1&amp;h=2406636623&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D2441476-1%26h%3D538504936%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.facebook.com%252Fmichaelphelps%252F%26a%3DFacebook&amp;a=Facebook\" rel=\"nofollow\">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0 and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2441476-1&amp;h=4201643630&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D2441476-1%26h%3D1982134368%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.instagram.com%252Fm_phelps00%252F%26a%3DInstagram&amp;a=Instagram\" rel=\"nofollow\">Instagram<\/a> (@m_phelps00) <\/li>\n<li><span class=\"xn-person\">Nicole Phelps<\/span> on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2441476-1&amp;h=2741777292&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D2441476-1%26h%3D2352678942%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.instagram.com%252Fmrs.nicolephelps%252F%26a%3DInstagram&amp;a=Instagram\" rel=\"nofollow\">Instagram<\/a> (@mrs.nicolephelps) <\/li>\n<li>Boomer Phelps on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2441476-1&amp;h=2457358785&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D2441476-1%26h%3D3552132572%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.instagram.com%252Fboomerrphelps%252F%26a%3DInstagram&amp;a=Instagram\" rel=\"nofollow\">Instagram<\/a> (@boomerrphelps) <\/li>\n<li>Colgate on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2441476-1&amp;h=540163379&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D2441476-1%26h%3D2919660%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.facebook.com%252FColgate%252F%26a%3DFacebook&amp;a=Facebook\" rel=\"nofollow\">Facebook<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=2441476-1&amp;h=1891985004&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fc212.net%2Fc%2Flink%2F%3Ft%3D0%26l%3Den%26o%3D2441476-1%26h%3D1899093530%26u%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Ftwitter.com%252FColgate%26a%3DTwitter&amp;a=Twitter\" rel=\"nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> (@Colgate)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>About Colgate-Palmolive <br \/><\/b>Colgate-Palmolive is a leading global consumer products company, tightly focused on Oral Care, Personal Care, Home Care and Pet Nutrition.
