In this episode of Discern Earth, I speak with my friend and environmental chemist, Sam Rosolina, about how his faith evolved to the point of finding a church that embraces creation care, his deep love of Southern Appalachia, how witnessing the devastating Kingston coal ash spill catalyzed his entry into environmental chemistry, his work using isotopes to identify how microbes remediate hazardous waste sites, the parallels between microbial and human communities, and finding stability in a career of stewarding the place that he calls home.
