World Water Monitoring Day

worldwater.gifThe folks behind World Water Monitoring Day want to be sure you save the date for this year's events:

In honor of World Water Day, the Water Environment Federation and the International Water Association would like to remind you to save the date of September 18, 2007 for the next World Water Monitoring Day!

World Water Monitoring Day is an international program that builds public awareness and involvement in protecting water resources worldwide. On September 18, 2007, communities around the world will monitor the condition of their local rivers, streams, estuaries and other water bodies.

In 2006, over 3,900 sites were monitored in 39 countries. Don’t miss your chance to participate in this global water awareness event!

For information on how to partici pate, please visit www.wef.org or www.WorldWaterMonitoringDay.org

The goal of the World Water Monitoring day is to build public awareness and involvement in protecting water resources around the world. Local citizen science efforts to report on conditions of area watersheds might be among the most important projects you could participate in, and you might even have to become your own expert in the ecology of your area.
