We love to paddle in Pearl River, however the unclean water bothered us. The aim of this document is to combine the effert of GIDB and G:HUB, in order to conduct a 6 month continuous monitoring of Xinzhou boatyard of Pearl River, where Guangzhou International Dragon Boat (GIDB) train everyweek. Through regular water quality monitoring, we hope to gain deeper understanding of Pearl River, and to track its variations, thus to attract more attention and raise awareness of Pearl River protection.
