[env-trinity] Action Alert: Support Tribes' Efforts to Save the Klamath River!

[Daniel Bacher]

Good Morning!

I urge everybody to participate in this action alert as soon as you get 
this! It takes less than a minute to send a message to Scottish Power by 
clicking on the FOR website. A delegation of Klamath River tribes, Friends 
of the River and fishermen is in Scotland now to urge Scottish Power to 
remove some dams and fit others with fish ladders to restore salmon and 
steelhead runs on the Klamath

SUPPORT TRIBES’ EFFORTS TO BRING THE KLAMATH SALMON HOME!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Join in the day of action, Wednesday July 21st

Klamath fishery and Tribal cultures are at risk. Send your comments to 
Scottish Power!

The Karuk, Yurok, ,Hoopa, and Klamath Tribes are working with Friends of the 
River and the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen’s Associations to ‘Bring 
the Salmon Home’ to the Upper Klamath Basin. Six dams without functional 
fish ladders stand in the way of restoration. We hope that by removing some 
dams and fitting others with ladders, we can open up over 350 of historic 
spawning habitat to salmon.

Currently, a joint delegation is in Scotland, taking the story of the 
Klamath River directly to Scottish Power (NYSE- SPI) who owns PacifiCorp, 
who in turn owns and operates the Klamath dams.

Considering Scottish Power’s reputation as a ‘green’ energy company, we are 
hopeful that once they learn more about the Klamath crisis, they will want 
to help save the salmon and the age old Tribal cultures that depend on the 
fishery.

You can help! Learn more and send an email on Wednesday July 21 to Scottish
