- goal: to identify and address social inequities within our local community as they relate to the consequences of human activity and climate change, with a general interest in water, air, and soil quality
- main function: to assist in community efforts to address aforementioned inequities, coordinating with local organizations and stakeholders to identify relevant and efficacious efforts for us to participate in
previous workshops: 2/04 Temescal Creek Bacterial contamination monitoring
- members of the lab teamed up to test water quality of local creek, Temescal Creek, at various points using R-cards to test for relative contamination of common bacteria
what are R-cards?: https://www.rothbioscience.com/collections/r-card-products

Summer DIY home water quality testing workshop
- members of the lab and local community members brought hot and cold water samples from their home, which we tested for common pollutant contamination using three different online-purchased water quality testing strips
what tests did we use:
