The complexities of science are so rooted in data and theory that they can obscure the personal side of what scientists do. But ask the right questions, and a different perspective will emerge. When talking with faculty from the Notre Dame Environmental Change Initiative, what came through were stories of compassion, wonder and even heart ache for the science that’s become their life’s work.
