Dr. Katherine Hejo's journey into climate science was inspired by her Christian faith. Growing up in a family with both a science education perspective and a church ministry background, she saw no conflict between her faith and the study of climate change. Witnessing the vulnerability of people living in poverty during her time in Columbia, she realized that climate change directly impacts people's health, food security, and living conditions, especially the most vulnerable. This realization led her to view climate change as a call to love and care for others, aligning with her Christian values.
