Climate Center Texas Tech University Climate Center: multidisciplinary research critical for sustainable policy development around the world.

The Climate Science Center at Texas Tech University serves as the regional hub to address the effects of climate across all landscapes within the South Central region of the United States. Providing expertise for linking regional climate projections to soil processes, plant productivity, patterns of biodiversity, conservation initiatives, ecosystem services, water policy and planning, agricultural

production, rural economic preparedness, the sustainability of natural and agroecosystems, and communicating with stakeholders to develop and apply this information to real world decision making and planning in the Southern Plains. Researchers and Texas Tech University combine their expertise and experience to address key aspects of climate research that are critical for informing and developing sustainable policy and planning decisions, at multiple scales, for both natural and managed ecosystems, landscapes, and watersheds. The Climate Science Center's Fund For Excellence was created to help provide financial support to continue and improve our events and provide funding where needed. We would like to thank the anonymous donors who donated to our center in which we were able to begin this fund. This fund will be used to help improve and continue our monthly events.

Texas restaurants are rethinking straws. Here’s the latest from Texas Restaurant Association :
🥤More Texas restaurants are now only giving out straws upon request.
🥤 Saving straws saves sealife. Saving straws saves restaurants money. Win-win.

🥤 Used straws are a hassle in restaurant kitchens. Keeping them out of the drain prevents clogs and costly repairs.
