Who
          Watches the Watchers?
      The recent charging of prominent documentarians in British
      Columbia court is raising important questions about the ethics of
      wildlife videography. 
    
Listening
          to the Smelt
      By monitoring the embryos of a little-studied forage fish,
      scientists hope to track and minimize the damaging effects of
      pollution in important coastal habitats. 
    
Federal
          Court rejects environmentalists' bid to halt B.C. port
          expansion
      A Federal Court judge has thrown
        out a legal challenge by environmental groups that claimed
      allowing the expansion of a massive container facility on British
      Columbia's waterfront would threaten the survival of southern
      resident killer whales and salmon.

          look at the Washington Legislature’s 2025 environmental agenda

      Hydroelectric
          dams on Oregon’s Willamette River kill salmon. Congress says
          it’s time to consider shutting them down
      The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said it could make hydroelectric
      dams on Oregon’s Willamette River safe for endangered salmon by
      building gigantic mechanical traps and hauling baby fish
      downstream in tanker trucks. This month, President Joe Biden
      signed legislation ordering the Corps to put its plans on hold and
      consider a simpler solution: Stop using the dams for electricity.
