    Cascadia before Cascadias were all the rage.

    Tribal members and environmentalists are pursuing just that for the Columbia River and all it's tributaries, clear into Idaho, without natural fish passage barriers over concerns for anadromous species.

    Some smaller ones have been removed, but none on the Columbia or Snake. I don't know California.

    You do have to have a stamp to hunt them.

    The OM and I think that course of action should take place immediately along with the switching off of the giant coal plants in WHY-OH-MING.

    See part of The OM's plan is they're aren't going to be any more handouts.

    Any handouts.

    People will work or they will do whatever comes naturally if they do not.
     
    dwells40, InTooDeep, Feedman and 8 others Thank this.

    The OM has noticed when people get hungry, let alone cold and hungry, they tend to be a bit less, shall we say................magnanimous.

    Since we make our living in stream restoration and fish habitat enhancement projects I am admittedly hypocritic on this issue. Business-wise it would provide an incredible amount of work for the foreseeable future, but the environmental implications alone of removing dams, not to mention the environmental implications of replacing the predominant power source in the Northwest are going to have unintended consequences beyond the imagination of many well-intended smart people.

    The bright side is:

    Electric vehicle proponents will be even more perplexed when finding a source of electricity for their vehicles!

    We need to coin a new phrase. Something like: They will be Musked!
