Gavin Schmidt Wife and Family

Gavin Schmidt has kept his wife details away from the public.

However, the scientist had shared how they met, and it is a really sweet story.

The climatologist had first met his wife in a bar near the Columbia University campus more than a decade ago. His wife came up to him and asked if he knew what is the main component of air which he answered correctly.

Now the reason for such a query from her side was that she had previously met a bet that an average stranger in a bar wouldn’t know anything about atmospheric chemistry, and she lost. Still, the upside was that two years later the encounter, they had gotten married.

Every year now, the scientist tweets about Nitrogen #NitrogenTuesday on Tuesday, two weeks before Good Friday, the anniversary of the evening when he first met his wife.
