We need to do something about the factory fishing in the ocean. Asia has hundreds of large fishing vessels stripping the ocean clean of life. Out of sight, out of mind until they have killed everything and return home empty.
Censorship by our news media by certain Asian countries that I cannot name is preventing exposure of the wholesale rape of the resources of the ocean. The nation that I cannot name, has vast factory fishing fleets as part of its maritime militia that are armed and dangerous.That nation owns 10% of the news media and about 30% of the Hollywood studios. What is this nation? It's very large, the source of the Covid 19 virus. The COMMUNIST CHINESE PEOPLES'S REPUBLIC. Did you know they are building a dam in the Himalayas that will block the Brama puta River?
Megatonnes of sediment builds up behind dams in few decades. Remove the dam and most of that will wash downstream, despite efforts to stabilize it with plants. It will smother spawning beds and do other damage, and while the river will-probably, eventually, mostly-clean itself, it only takes one year’s total failure to destroy a spawning run. Suggestion? Build one suction dredge that can be taken apart, transported by truck, and reassembled behind a dam scheduled for removal; we should be able to schedule dam removals so that one or two machines will do for all. Dredge most of the sediment out from behind the dam, and it will not be there to wash downstream. I don’t know where/how we dispose of all that, if it’s contaminated with agricultural and other chemicals-but then we don’t want to let that contaminate the downstream river bottom anyway. Where it is clean enough, it’s silt, very rich soil, and it could be sold to farmers or as a component of potting soil. There are no wastes, only un-utilized resources.
Great job. Onto the next dam upstream. It seems like you could remove a dam each week. the science is in, no need for endless REPETITIVE studies, just go for it.
@@BeautifuLakesStreamsBiologists Beaver are natural to the rivers. They build small dams which create riparian habitat and help regenerate the water table by slowing the water run off. Fish can jump over the dams. The beaver dams also clean the water by trapping the sediment and creating natural wetlands where the vegetation traps sediment. The benefits are numerous. Too many to address is a short reply...
all these people having fun ripping out small dams are you also reintroducing beavers to the aria and letting them build back more porous dams or are you just having fun returning a water way to another man made modification
The really sad aspect is that, had authorities and companies not been so stubborn about their "vision of progress", such small dams could have been mitigated by adding stones and gravel against their wall to allow fish to pass. Decades wasted in senseless ideological fight... 😑
Nice, i wonder how many thousands of dollars were wasted tossing some downed trees in the creek. Literally. how many thousands of dollars got spent doing that portion.....
We know more than Mother Nature. Trust me. We could have either just simply knocked it down and walked off or just left it alone. Nature didn't care either way but we get to feel good about it. (This is simple job creation and we're mesmerized by it like it is magic or a religious event.) **Just a different point of view. Neither right nor wrong.**
Well done to all involved it is so lovely now!!!
Great work guys.
thank god for all your effortss
So satisfying to see waterways freed. Congratulations!

Not just Asia. Stop pointing fingers. To attain sustainable development everyone everywhere must do their part.
@@alex.velasco When certain country's entire fleet turns off it's AIS what do you think happens?

Yeah. Stop eating cheap sushi.
WELL DONE !
You guys rock

Europe removed 500 dams last year. Let's keep going.
Weigh the good of no dams with the bad.
Stupid.

Doing a dam good job
Very nice 👍❤
Less talk more action !
Now remove the dam at the Great Falls of the Missouri, what a disgrace.
It's certainly nice to know they named a dam after Linda.
Also my first thought. I wonder many people don't get the reference!

Comparing this dam to a usual log jam.
Well done. If you unbuild it, they will come.
Thank you.
Great job.

Why was the dam built?
Yeah, happy talk video that doesn't explain anything
Now reintroduce beaver to the area.
So they can rebuild the dam?

So, this is a case of Riparian Repair...nice.

Why wait 20-30 years for the natural cycle to place fallen trees in the creek? Might as well get on with full restoration.

How are beaver dams good but human dams bad?
Do some research and you will see why lol😂😂😂
@@lordhorg999 I did, human dams are way better, build more human dams!!
Ya the world is drying up why keep dams full of water anywhere, these people are the ones to thank 😂
