Stream restoration in the Pacific Northwest seems to be paying off. We’re seeing impressive increases in salmon returns in our rivers.

If we keep up the good work then maybe we’ll get back to the days when we had three salmon canneries along the Eel River and fishermen used to supply the canneries by rowing out from the cannery and filling their boats with fish using hay forks.

With some work we could get rid of fossil fuels and start putting our planet back into decent shape. It would do us all a world of good.
