Drought Impact in the Hill Country
TexS and Texas Water Symposium, in partnership with Texas Public Radio, Schreiner University and Hill Country Alliance
TexS talk is an event designed to bring a fun educational experience to Schreiner University. The event is modeled after the famous TEDx events that take place around the world.
WED FEB 22 | 6:30-7:30 PM | SCHREINER UNIVERSITY, CCAC BALLROOM 2
How is the ongoing drought impacting folks on the ground, and what can we do to improve water stewardship?
In 2022, San Antonio received only a third of its average annual rainfall. Popular swimming holes from Jacobs Well in Wimberley to the Guadalupe River dried up – impacting wildlife, agriculture, and tourism revenue in addition to many rural communities dependent on limited water resources. As the drought continues into 2023, what can we do to preserve the water we’ve got?
Join us for an evening of expert panel discussion with an opportunity for audience Q&A at the end.
In partnership with Texas Water Symposium, this event will be recorded and aired on Texas Public Radio.
This event is FREE and open to the public.
