The Edwards Aquifer is our primary source of drinking water, but many people have not taken the time to understand it.

Every resident should know more about their local natural resources, including the Edwards Aquifer, the primary water supply for the greater San Antonio area.“Back where I came from …” used to be heard a lot from people who had just moved in from out of state.

But today, beyond traffic problems and good places to eat, so many are blind to their own natural locale.

It’s not just cosmetics, though. Population growth has put a critical importance to how we engineer for practical concerns. At a recent forum at the Urban Ecology Center, “Drought Meets Development: Balancing growth and water conservation,” panelists stressed that every resident should know more about their local natural resources.
