Great to be back in Dallas this week with Tracy for a conversation with @KHayhoe of @nature_org and James McGuire of @nature_tx on nature and our health. As a doctor, I've seen it firsthand: the world around us shapes the world within us. Special thanks to Deedie Rose for hosting this fantastic event.

In Fort Worth for Tracy’s cutting horse competition, art became an unexpected throughline, from Bowie House to Sundance Square’s murals celebrating North Texas biodiversity. Art changes how we see a place and recognize why it is worth protecting. @nature_org @nature_tx @TNC_CT @mantrarea
