Our salmon are stressed
We've been monitoring stream temperatures across the Cook Inlet watershed since 2002. It is clear that salmon are already experiencing thermal stress and that, over the next 50 years, more streams will get warmer more often.

Good. About time. Actually, way past time.
Hopefully there is a plan to battle the misinformation and confusion deliberately cause by the ads which big oil spends millions on to defeat these types of efforts. I feel like if you ask the average person what should be done they would say repeal.... But the ads trick you into voting yes or no in the interest of big oil. I wonder if most people actually know how they were voting?
Senator Bill Wielechowski thank you 🙏🏼

Art as Strategy: Envisioning a Just Transition

We’re in a single revenue source, fossil-fuel based economy that is unsustainable for workers and the environment. […]
