*Ganga River Watch Workshop – A Community Effort to Protect Our River*
Today, we were proud to host the “Ganga River Watch” workshop, bringing together over 50 participants, including members from the local community and students from various cities. Led by Sue Lennox, R.K. Pandey ji, Mishra Ji, and Diptesh, this hands-on workshop focused on empowering participants with essential skills to monitor the health of our beloved Ganga River.
Participants learned valuable techniques for water quality testing, including how to calculate Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), measure Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), and check the pH level of water. Each participant received a testing kit to take home, encouraging them to monitor the water quality monthly and share their findings with OzGreen. This collective data will help us better understand the river's health and track changes over time.
We’re grateful for the enthusiasm and commitment shown by everyone who attended. Together, we’re taking steps to ensure a cleaner, healthier future for the Ganga River.
