California tribes celebrate historic dam removal: ‘More successful than we ever imagined’

After four dams were blasted from the Klamath River, the work to restore the ecosystem is under way

The Guardian

The #Klamath is one of several recent #RemoveTheDams victories, but there is little time to celebrate. All #WildSalmon Rivers are in peril across the World. We must be vigilant and #SaveWildSalmon from all their threats. Be a #SalmonLeader and get off your asses.

The best men’s walking boots for every type of hiking adventure

Whether you’re heading to the hills on a multi-day trek or simply taking the dog for a countryside stroll, these are the best boots for the job – tried and tested by our writer

#SalmonHatcheries, #FishLadders, etc. are #bandaid measures which will not sustain #WildSalmon & #steelhead in #WA or anywhere. #JayInslee and the entire WA Congressional delegation are being dishonest with the #publlc and those directly affected. The only way forward is to #RemoveTheDams on the #Columbia and elsewhere and yet in spite of Legal Outcomes to do just this, they sit untouched because no one has ANY Political Courage to do the job. These are NOT #SalmonLeaders https://www.king5.com/article/tech/science/environment/240-million-tribal-salmon-hatcheries-across-northwest/281-2772aac6-b8f3-4482-9b78-32f8cac285f8?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery

#WildSalmon cannot continue to exist on '#Hope' alone. They need #SalmonLeaders to get off their asses and to end this #ECOcide. The #Klamath is no exception. There is far too much work yet to do for any celebrations to take place. #IanJames #GinaFerazzi. #SaveWildSalmon. #RemoveTheDams (all of them).
