The past couple of weeks with the green machine included water quality testing, water pumping, and bacteria testing. Through repitition, Josh and I grew a better understanding of what we were testing, why we were testing it, and also became more familiar with the equipment and methods. Although it became a daily routine, we were able to understand the importance of testing the quality of the water which is to give our mentors a better understanding of how the green machine is working, if it is working, and where it needs to be improved.
