    Protecting our land with Hill Country Conservancy

    As Austin’s population grows, open land becomes a key discussion.  Throughout Austin’s history, the 250,000 acres overlying the Barton  Springs Edwards Aquifer (this sounds weird, is it officially this name or is it two places?) has  been divided between the area’s business and environmental interests.  The solution became Hill Country Conservancy which created a coalition  of leaders between the business and environmental communities. The  nonprofit's mission is to help facilitate communication between both  parties in order to protect our land and our economy.In  this episode of Everyday Superhumans, Charlie and Kyle chat with  Adrienne Longnecker, the Chief Operation Officer and Director of  Development of Hill Country Conservancy. We talk about one of Charlie’s  favorite trail systems, the Violet Crown Trail. Kyle shows off his  vocabulary and understanding of the word easements. Finally, did you  know Texas has invasive species?

    Austin Wildlife Rescue has been helping keep Austin wild since 1977. Austin Wildlife Rescue rehabilitates and releases orphaned, sick, and injured wild animals and educates the public to coexist with wildlife. In this episode of Everyday Superhumans Charlie and Kyle chat with the Hayley Hudnall, Executive Director of Austin Wildlife Rescue, about the nearly 8,000 animals AWR took in during 2019 as well as common misconceptions about wild animals and how you can help them.
