Three from the College of Engineering who are devoted to environmental research, and education, and have contributed to the global conversation on climate change and to a growing environmental crisis, are featured in the current issue of Iowa Alumni Magazine.

They are Connie Mutel, senior science writer, IIHR Hydroscience and Engineering; Gabriele Villarini, associate professor of civil and environmental engineering and interim director of IIHR--Hydroscience & Engineering; and Jerry Schnoor, Allen S. Henry Chair in Engineering, professor of civil and environmental engineering, and co-director of the UI Center for Global and Regional Environmental Research.

The feature highlights the "Climate for Change" theme semester on campus, during which the UI community will have a chance to deliberate and determine responses to this timely issue. Here are six Hawkeye researchers, educators, and activists who already have contributed to the global conversation on climate change.
