  • Texas is growing fast, and our land and wildlife are feeling the strain. Pollution and decades of energy development have left lasting marks on prairies, rivers, and coastal habitats. Clean, renewable energy is essential to powering Texas’ future without repeating those harms. But how we build it matters. The choices we make now will shape the Texas landscape and its wildlife for generations.

    The Nature and Clean Energy Summit will bring together conservation leaders and clean energy practitioners to examine how we protect land, air, water and wildlife while meeting growing energy needs. The Summit will highlight practical examples of impact mitigation, policy ideas to promote renewables while protecting nature, and address a growing challenge: proposals for moratoriums and restrictive policies that would halt renewable energy development rather than improve it
