really appreciate this talk. It's always good to be reminded that stopping the people who are changing the climate is a high priority. If I may add to this point... while there is a lot of talk about climate policies from gov't, and those are hopeful signs that change is coming, we are still making this problem worse each and every day. It won't stop getting worse until emissions get to zero. And we don't seem to be heading for zero at nearly the speed we need to. All additional warming at this point risks cascading self-reinforcing feedbacks... of which we've already seen indications (wildiffre emissions in canada this year are 3x the direct-human-caused emissions). Of course, salmon are already protected from pollution by law, in theory. So, we just need enforcement. So, we've got work to do, fast. Thanks Watershed watch for your work.
