Effect of Earth on Humans:
Texas is in a drought. This picture represents the strict watering times Austin has set to try to conserve water. We have to set our sprinklers to water our lawns at night so the water doesn't evaporate due to the hot Texas sun.
Movement
People come to Austin from not only across the country, but from across the world to go to the Austin City Limits Music Festival, South by Southwest, and the Formula One race. During those times the city's hotels and flights coming and going are packed with people from all around the world, visiting to enjoy local music.
Regions
In this part of Texas, sports play a big role in our culture. Every sport, especially football is extremely competitive. Every Friday night families show up by the thousands to high school football games to socialize and support local high schools.
