  • UMMMM-I live in the Olympic Mt Foothills-I live in a rural area-Now there is a push to relocate everyone out of Olympic Mt Foothills-This sounds like Agenda 21 to me-I am an Organic Farmer and the Governer here wants this-To get rid of the few farmers and rancher (organic) out and bring BIG INDUSTRY in-She paints a pretty picture but all I see around here in trees being cut down

    Peace

  • 1:08 Not ILLEGALLY, these stupid laws weren't even dreamed of by grant chasing scientists 100 yrs ago.

    "Cost money" convenient excuse to reduce potential power, creating power price hikes on FREE elec. that is a PUBLIC resource, that should have never charged for in the 1st place.

    ok salmon gone for a 100 years, i think we AND the fish have adapted

    so much for "hope & change" Wash St. "GET USE TO IT" seems to be what you get.

  • Idiots.... Coho salmon is a COLD water fish. They have migrated north towards Alaska because the waters off the west coast have warmed. This "experiment" is foolish.

    Here is another story similar to this one (detroying dams to restore Coho salmon). YouTube link SrEZfxG1zrw

  • If it was me I would go ahead and blow up the hoover dam. Might as well. We might as well shoot a bomb up to the moon just to see what happens. right. You know it all makes sense. We might as well say that iran has nukes and attack them. Start a third world war. Might as well just to see what happens. And if we cant see salmon coming back to these areas. Then we are in bigger trouble then we thought.
