Yesterday, five new interns from Independence Junior College met to discuss the upcoming projects for their environmental internships working to learn about and improve water quality at shrimp farms in Belize.
Along with learning to test water quality and implement mitigation projects, they will be helping to test the Uni High Inventor's Club water quality apparatus. From left to right the group includes Natasha Bennett, Rennee Cadle, teacher and intern sponsor Abigail Parham, Shamika Logan and Lisa Guttierez. Also working with the project but not pictured here is Omar Sierra.
Thanks to Uni High, and the Lemelson Foundation for the use of the waterproof camera (held by teacher Abigail just over Renee's right shoulder). The interns will use that to document their progress and keep us all appraised of their successes.
All interns will begin work next week. We're prepped and ready to go!
