IU announced it would commit $55 million to finding solutions to environmental problems faced by the state of Indiana.
The research initiative, announced by IU President Michael McRobbie, is titled “Prepared for Environmental Change.”
“We aren’t here to debate partisan differences on climate change or what might happen years from now,” said Ellen Ketterson, professor of biology and leader of the initiative, in an IU press release. “We’re here because we can already see the year-round effects of the changes in our environment.”
