That may mean that electricity needs to be shut off in a shared manner as these Dam's provide about 2% of electricity for the area. Some other reports suggest the salmon may not come back due to climate related issues, making this an expensive experiment. The 500 million to tear down is 2x the cost that was sugggested to have built salmon ladders. If the salmon do not come back wil be a loss on 3 fronts; Salmon ,electricity, and water storage which has only been been touched on lightly. I can on hope it will not be a case of "Stupid is as Stupid does" as I believe a rebuild of torn down dams could easily be in the 10's of BILLIONS. As for government wisdom - we tend to look at "either or" options vs hybrid solutions.
The tribes have got gambling. They aren't going around in canoes fishing for salmon. I know of a woman from a tribe in Hollywood Florida getting 10k a month from gambling dividends to tribal members. Each of her kids get $2500.00 a month. True story.
@@jaznm7195this is an extremely well thought out project. The sky is not falling! We are simply fixing some of the worst mistakes we made. Everything will be fine.
May the work needed to remove the four dam's go smoothly for the community and the workers. But once the work is competed may the life and custom's of the American Indian not only survive but thrive for the next thousand years!
well yeah if you rewild an area to a state it was in 100 or so years ago there wil also be (mostly short term) negative consequences, indeed wildfires could be a major issue at first, however if you look back you see that wildfires were always quite frequent but when we began moving to prevent them entirely we also created the conditions that caused the ones that we now see to be enormously more devastating. (though it's important to note that it is also due to a recent seemingly hybrid tendency in which the removal of dead material from forest is stopped abruptly whilst still not intending wildfires to return, these measures should be taken but they should be taken piecemeal, not all at once because now these forests are essentially either all old or all new trees, in a more mixed forest it wil be better also removing the dam no doubt wil restore former wetlands as well, in the longterm the environment wil be served by it, but again regarding certain measures these should be eased in
I remember back in 2000 driving up to Requa along the north shore of Klamath River mouth is the smell of smoked salmon wafting from locals houses. Kept the car window down to enjoy it!
So the guy only cared about the value of the property and the counting on exactly the tribe or the people that live there and their food supply just that goes to show capitalism at its finest
It will help the salmon population as a whole in the Pacific Ocean as well. The Tribe is just one small part of a huge chain of organisms that will benefit. It is useful and good to not associate natural habitats with sociological or artificial boundaries since they are intrinsic to the synergy of life. The more we refer to them and their denizens as intrinsic to their territorial region the more the focus on their overall value will be.
It's very possible and positive, but there's honestly no guarantee. You can build the river, slow it down, add rocks, etc. There isn't any guarantee that the salmon will come back in numbers. I would suggest they close the rivers from fishing for at least 3 years minimum. So many things can go wrong, but many things can also go right. I wish the state, workers and tribes the best of luck.
they allready did actually, luckily it seems that they never fully stopped salmon migration up river, perhaps there were populations that could spawn in branches they did have access to, with the river restored they can however go further up and perhaps reach colder waters that are more suitable for them, and it's not just salmon offcourse + dams have far more issues than just fish population decline, they harm all traditional river life in various ways and importantly reservoirs have been found to be a highway for parasites, the Aswan dam lead to widespread malaria infection and a massive deathtoll as the population living in middle-upper egypt had next to no resistance to it+ were at the time suffering widespread malnutrition.
Four large dams make how much electricity ? In a state with an already broken power grid. Taking them down is a good thing but like every thing else the state isn't prepared for the out come. Going Green is a good thing but maybe we could stop sending billions of dollars on Ukraine and use that money on solar and battery technology.
The government stole their land and left them dry, we then complain it's gonna effect property value and looking? I'm sorry, their land we settled on they should have a say more than just because it's their survival. Recognize by complaining about it that they are complacent.
About the Trinity River. A healthy river has many juvenile small fish through out its system. You see them especially during summer. The Trinity is near void of small fish. Why is this ? Trinity has ample spawning areas. But fish are not spawning in the main river. Is it good that there is many people floating the river, disturbing any fish that might be in there ?
You mean when government actualy was capable of progress not guided by concerns from the few who oppose progress. This for example is no more than window dressing. Do you actualy think native Americans still live in teepees near running water, which makes hunting and gathering more accessible to native salmon and fresh water. In reality native Americans enjoy all the comforts we delivered them. From cable TV to cell phones to heated dwellings flush with ac. Many gladly accept government handouts to fund their cozy lifestyles while useing our court system to demand more handouts. And lately the only time they seem content is when they win approval to clear cut their sacred lands to build massive casinos.
Let the salmon spawn then collect the bodies. I have people close to me in the Yurok & Hupa Tribes that live there. I myself have been in Hupa on the Trinity River where the Kurok tribe once lived. In a few years, the salmon will recover if they are only collected after spawning and the fertilized eggs are left alone.
You know salmon die after they spawn, right? What difference does it make to collect fish that are dead, how is that supposed to help? You can't eat decaying fish, plus their bodies provide nutrients for other fish and creatures that live in the river. Also, no one is collecting fertilized eggs. Salmon eggs are taken out female fish that have been caught when they're being processed for food; their eggs are only fertilized after they've been expelled from the body and laid in the river. I've never heard of anyone digging around in the river looking for fertilized eggs. I grew up on the Rogue River and we learned all about this in elementary school.
Do not listen to these cucks they do not farm or grow enough food to feed themselves let alone others. Fish bodies are used to make fish emulsion you intellectual numb skulls. Its how Native American tribes fertilizer their crops for thousands of years douchebags.
Here we have a state running out of water and the nincompoops in office decide to eliminate some dams. What are you going to do in the future California when you run out of water?
So beautiful thing that you’re doing I just can’t get used to seeing a native brother with a beard or goatee I guess times are changing so good and caring for mothers and that’s all it matters keep in the way of life to live see you can’t kill the Indian to save the man
there aren't many agricultural crops in the Klamath river valley. Drinking water has never come from those dams. Flooding? The dams don't really stop flooding. I think the tribes are more concerned about food. You know, cause you die without it.
I suspect the age of these dams is a major driver, but it is so nice to see Native Americans listened to. I not unsympathetic, but fire risks and property values are coming back to the builders of these things. As for water shortages like in the Colorado Basin, roughly 70% of that is agriculture and a good percentage of that goes to China. We are basically destroying our ecology over agricultural over production.
What about farming the Salmón in indoor lakes likes Trouts, Shrimp, ect. You know the Government want to restrict the water because the west is drying and California can't live without theirs fancy pools.
Why don't we focus on the Salmon's food first why don't we get rid of Herring fishing their main food source and fix the chemical in the tire problem that will have a bigger impact
Awesome, How many tons of CO2 are we going to add to the atmosphere to get salmon in the river and how disingenuous is it to claim this is the difference in food supply.
removing the dams, does not stop the water supply, for fighting wild fires develop a new system for accessing the water, this can be done w/ a little engineering
A short news segment cannot address the full breadth of issues surrounding salmon recovery. But this spot is so narrow as to ignore the many region-wide environmental, economic, and social benefits salmon provide, benefits dams take away. Not that salmon recovery for the benefit of Klamath indigineous people isn't important enough, but healthy Klamath basin salmon runs will benefit coastal communities far beyond the basin itself. And any cardiologist will tell you, we should all be eating more salmon and fewer burgers.
Once those dams are completely removed there wont be anything left of that water supply it will be down to alittle stream when things level out I would be willing to bet they will almost dry up at times in the near future
How about not netting all of the first down river and they will thrive. How’s it going to work with California droughts in the summer? There will be no water for the fish. How about record rainfall like this year? Flooding of so many homes. California already doesn’t have enough power for the people now and in a few short years only EV’s being sold but let’s pull out good clean power…… makes so much sense.
Couldn’t they create a series of fish weirs (mini damns) to slow the water but still keep it open to salmon? That is actually a traditional indigenous practice.
If we can save the fish for the native Americans it would be worth all the surrounding forests to burn up for lack of water to fight the fires.? Sometimes the end just don't justify the means. Repercussions are many.
our wonderful economic policies have all but killed the Chesapeake bay and puget sound and so many dead zones in the Gulf of Mexico . hope that they can get this right and restore just a few rivers for all the destruction that has been done to what was once long ago
I'm so sick of talk. Remove the dams already. But first get rid of the spiny ray fish above the dams before they wash down the main river establish themselves and eat up all the small steelhead and salmon.
I want everyone to work with the reservations all of the reservations because of the fish population not just in one half of the United States but the whole United States there used to be the same type of fish in one part of the United States to the other part of the United States all the riverbeds and everything else
And if you don't believe my last comment go down there to Northern California Southern Oregon walk through the reservation on a Friday or Saturday night or anytime late in the evening let us know what your experience was and you don't even have to get on the reservation just get close
no clue what yer last comment was but I've walked through NorCal reservations on Friday night. Beautiful place. Also there is no Southern Oregon reservation.
I remember when West Virginia and Maryland used to have salmon over so many years you do not find no salmon in the rivers or even you don't talk to him at all if you find one salmon it is very rare it was placed there that is how bad it is
I happen to live next to this reservation wonder why they don't talk about in the 90s when they got all their tribal money and they built all those brand new beautiful houses and got all those new pickup trucks and within a year the houses had no doors or Windows animals walking in and out of the houses and brand new pickups up on blocks and front yards that look like they lived in the yard not the house or the violence that comes from this tribe still to this day
@@HildaRealtor they also don't talk about before the white people got here how they killed themselves and Ward with each other they also don't talk about the times that the tribes would go to the white settlements and ask them to join in on their war parties they also don't talk about what would have happened if the European settlers hadn't have gotten here before Hitler
Wow... what a project and hope all goes to plan 🐳🐳🐳 and for the " fires" wy not prepare now and build a reservoir just in case its cheaper then rebuilding the whole place ... good luck folks 🇨🇦
"Could" means "we don't actually know if the taxpayer money spent to destroy the dam will solve the problem, but at least we feel better about ourselves."
The dams aren’t the problem!! It’s the over fishing everywhere, part of a natural evolution. Why have the salmon and chinook runs decreased so much in coastal rivers also. There are many of those rivers that have never had dams and their runs are diminishing also.

The tribe had to adapt to the destruction of the river and the endangering of the salmon; therefore, the others need to adapt to living without the water reservoirs. You build in a fire prone area, then adjust your building codes and stop building with wood or don’t rebuild after the fires destroy the entire town.
Why the heck not just give them a hundred million dollars and let em buy tuna fish in the can… that’d be a four hundred million dollar savings,,, it’s a win win….
You are really ignorant!! Maybe find out why they have American names!!! Could it be because they were not allowed to keep their names and given new names when they were forced to go to residential schools???? You really make yourself look stupid and I rarely call anyone stupid!!!
He has a point. Okay. Indians want to fish. Be traditional. No motor boats. Gill nets. Use traditional gear. Fish numbers will start going up. They won't be so fat and diabetics. There bodies were built for rugged living not fast food. I'm no Indian hater at all. I have a lot of respect for them and like them.
@@cammontreuil7509 You are ignorant though, saying you aren't an Indian hater!!! They are not Indian's. Try Indigenous Peoples or First Nations. Who are you to decide how they should fish? I am thrilled the damns are being destroyed and the ecosystem will one day flourish and provide food again.
Salmon, as a living creature, may be one of the best foods humans can eat. Scottish people feel that way, where the northern seas are the northern salmon fishing grounds going back to the Garden of Eden. Let me explain. Salmon are born fresh-water creatures. When they leave their birth-place and enter the ocean, talking about Pacific sockeye salmon, they change into salt-water creatures. Scientists don't know if this happens immediately or if it takes time. Despite swimming all over the Pacific, and surviving, these salmon will find their way back to the birthplace to lay eggs. Being back in fresh water distorts their metabolism, and they die. Humans are half fresh-water as our bodies and we're still salt water in our blood. Eating salmon helps to bridge that difference. There are two different kinds of food. Food that is pre-digested or not digested. Eating another animals is getting the chemicals that animal turned food into, and what it turns you into after eating it. When you eat undigested food your body turns it into the chemicals you need. If all you did was eat meat you would die. When you pick and eat food while it's living you absorb that energy of living, as important as nutrients. Many languages have a word to describe that. The English language, and the watered-down American, don't.
The Klamath river deserves to be natural
The tribes deserve to thrive

Yeah well, only in the end will humanity realize oil cannot quench thirst and money cannot be eaten.
Break 👏🏽 That 👏🏽 Dam
Sipsandi Dance
Really.hope they don't get rid of the dams.i. Washington
Those native people look well fed...
REMOVE TRHOSE DAMS!!! #Elwha
Why the heck not just give them a hundred million dollars and let em buy tuna fish in the can… that’d be a four hundred million dollar savings,,, it’s a win win….
Maybe the salmon wouldn't disappear if they stopped eating them. Hey go to the grocery store or better yet go to Arby's where the meat is. Lol
What a weirdo
At the mouth of the Trinity River. It's a miracle any fish get passed those Indians.
They’re so traditional but they have American names 😂😂… and his last name is meyers… he’s no engine
You are really ignorant!! Maybe find out why they have American names!!! Could it be because they were not allowed to keep their names and given new names when they were forced to go to residential schools???? You really make yourself look stupid and I rarely call anyone stupid!!!
He has a point. Okay. Indians want to fish. Be traditional. No motor boats. Gill nets. Use traditional gear. Fish numbers will start going up.
They won't be so fat and diabetics.
There bodies were built for rugged living not fast food.
I'm no Indian hater at all. I have a lot of respect for them and like them.
@@cammontreuil7509 You are ignorant though, saying you aren't an Indian hater!!! They are not Indian's. Try Indigenous Peoples or First Nations. Who are you to decide how they should fish? I am thrilled the damns are being destroyed and the ecosystem will one day flourish and provide food again.
😅🤑😅
About dam time
Salmon, as a living creature, may be one of the best foods humans can eat. Scottish people feel that way,
where the northern seas are the northern salmon fishing grounds going back to the Garden of Eden.
Let me explain. Salmon are born fresh-water creatures. When they leave their birth-place and enter the ocean,
talking about Pacific sockeye salmon, they change into salt-water creatures. Scientists don't know if this
happens immediately or if it takes time. Despite swimming all over the Pacific, and surviving, these salmon
will find their way back to the birthplace to lay eggs. Being back in fresh water distorts their metabolism,
and they die. Humans are half fresh-water as our bodies and we're still salt water in our blood. Eating salmon
helps to bridge that difference.
There are two different kinds of food. Food that is pre-digested or not digested. Eating another animals is
getting the chemicals that animal turned food into, and what it turns you into after eating it. When you eat
undigested food your body turns it into the chemicals you need. If all you did was eat meat you would die.
When you pick and eat food while it's living you absorb that energy of living, as important as nutrients.
Many languages have a word to describe that. The English language, and the watered-down American, don't.
Damn those dams! Remove them!
