A Conversation about Conservation: Texan by Nature's CEO, Joni Carswell

High Plains Public Radio

Published January 9, 2019 at 3:30 PM CST

During my internship at HPPR, I had the opportunity to speak with Joni Carswell, the CEO and President of the Texas-based conservation foundation Texan By Nature. Founded by former First Lady Laura Bush in 2011, Texan By Nature aims to unite business and conservation leaders who believe the well-being of Texas is dependent on the conservation of our natural resources.

Check out our interview below, where Joni and I discuss Texan By Nature’s Conservation Wranglers program and chat about the environment, the future, and the importance of conservation.
