Rescue salmon from hot water

Salmon are suffocating due to hot water caused by dams. There’s something we can do: let lawmakers know you want dams removed along the Columbia River and its tributaries.

Says Columbia Riverkeeper : Water temperature over 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees F) is unsafe for salmon. As our climate warms, so do our rivers. On the Columbia and Snake rivers, hydroelectric dams make the heat pollution even worse. Large, shallow reservoirs absorb solar radiation and retain heat.
