Making Sense of Water with Water First™ Engineering (Part II)
On average, 50-60% of municipal water is being used for landscape irrigation purposes, and it is observed that is a staggering trend of overwatering in Texas alone. Due to this, governments will predictably increase prices on this vital resource. In order to effectively promote water conservation, it is important to use the vernacular of project developers and owners: Simply, illustrate how reducing usage increases the property value. Matt Hall with Hines, Inc. shares his experience with water management and building value through water resources.

What You Need to Know About Air Quality
Air pollution is perceived as a modern-day curse: a by-product of increasing urbanization and industrialization. It does, however, have a long and evolving history with interesting transitions in line with economic, technological and political change. Every time we drive to school, use our heater or air conditioner, clean our windows, or even style our hair, we make choices that affect air pollution. It’s important to be mindful of our impact. Very small decisions times 7 million make a huge difference, even if we don’t think so. In this episode, Lori with the North Texas Council of Governments discusses the work she is doing and how you can help the environment.
