As a scientist/nonscientist writing team, Bill and Rosemarie Alley communicate complex environmental science issues to a broad public. Bill provides the scientific expertise and Rosemarie’s job is to turn it into an engaging narrative. They have written three books together (a third on Water Recycling is forthcoming), as well as articles and Op/Ed pieces, and have given talks to a wide range of audiences. Their experiences as an unconventional team have given them unique insights in how to successfully hook the public’s interest with environmental science issues.
