Sibun River Monitoring Project

Sibun River Monitoring Project

Water samplingGoal:  To monitor the water quality of the Sibun River in order to inform local communities about the health of the river.

Water is the essential element that all life depends upon.  InvertebratesAs the Earth’s supply of fresh water continues to decrease it is becoming increasingly more important to monitor the quality of this precious resource.  Many people in developing nations will drink, bathe and wash their clothes directly in local rivers and streams.  We face the challenge of helping people to realize the importance and delicate nature of this resource.  It is our intent to monitor the Sibun watershed region in order to alert the local communities about any changes that may be occurring and to help protect this natural treasure against the onslaught of irresponsible and careless development practices.
