Water is the essence of life. It helps us grow and sustain ourselves through change, and it keeps the planet running. Few people make it their entire lives, but Rachel Rossi of Durango, Colorado wants to help create sustainable approaches to water remediation in order to prevent environmental degradation. With six years of experience under her belt already, Rachel is sure to change the way we interact with water. Learn more about her in this Q&A.
Tell us a little about your background.
My primary interest in chemical engineering, and how to shift the current paradigm from one which degrades the environment to one which supports the environment.
Most recently, I have been researching remediation of fracking chemicals, which are used to acquire natural gas. Fracking chemicals are especially problematic to human and environmental health as water contaminants.
