Take the Katy Prairie — some 30,000 to 50,000 acres of land that’s home to hundreds of different types of birds. The Katy Prairie Conservancy seeks to protect that land.
Today, we talk with Mary Anne Piacentini, executive director of the conservancy, about efforts to preserve the Katy Prairie, how flooding impacts the area and the challenges inherent from encroaching development. We welcome your thoughts as well.
