What is WaterSense?

  1. A certification for energy-efficient appliances

  2. A program to save water by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

  3. A label for sustainable building materials

  4. A partnership for reducing carbon footprints

The correct answer is: A program to save water by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

The correct answer highlights that WaterSense is specifically a program initiated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) aimed at promoting water efficiency. This program is designed to encourage the use of water-efficient products, practices, and services to help conserve water and protect the environment. WaterSense-labelled products, such as faucets, toilets, and irrigation systems, are rigorously tested for performance and efficiency, ensuring they use significantly less water compared to their conventional counterparts while still providing the desired performance. This not only helps save water but can also reduce water bills and ease the strain on municipal water supply systems. The other options do not accurately define WaterSense. A certification for energy-efficient appliances would pertain to energy conservation, which is not the focus of WaterSense. A label for sustainable building materials also does not align as WaterSense specifically deals with water efficiency rather than a broader category of building sustainability. A partnership for reducing carbon footprints relates to initiatives aimed at addressing climate change, but does not capture the specific mission of WaterSense related to water conservation.
