Hurricane Harvey Resources
Hurricane Harvey was a devastating disaster, severely affecting many Texans. The TCEQ is working to help communities assess damage, manage debris, and bring critical services back online, including water and wastewater. If you or someone you know has been affected by the storm, resources from the TCEQ can help, including information about drinking water and cleaning up debris.
The Take Care of Texas Video Contest is underway! To enter, participants create a 30-second video showing positive ways to conserve natural resources. It’s a fun way for 6th - 12th graders to learn about the environment and teach others how to take care of it. Plus, the contest sponsor, Waste Management of Texas, Inc., is providing great prizes!
Attracting Wildlife to Your Yard
Habitat loss is affecting many types of wildlife throughout Texas. As urban centers continue to expand into wildlife habitats and native plant species are replaced with non-natives, the resources that wildlife need for survival decrease. But, you can help restore habitat by creating a wildscape in your own backyard!
