Wild salmon and their beautiful home rivers are at risk and we need to take action.
Right now, a foreign mining company wants to roll back protections and build a toxic mine right at the headwaters of two crystal clear rivers that feed Bristol Bay, Alaska – an area that currently sustains more than 30 million wild salmon and dozens of the world’s most spectacular wildlife species every year.
This reckless mining threatens this entire ecosystem and could cause irreversible damage to our environment.
Salmon watersheds consist of free-flowing rivers and rich forests, which provide clean drinking water and absorb carbon to slow climate change. Millions of people and many coastal communities rely on salmon for food and livelihoods.
It’s simple: protect salmon and you protect healthy forests, climate action, recreation opportunities, wild protein, and local jobs.
Over the years, activists earned protections for Bristol Bay. Now we need to make those protections permanent – and end the threat of mining once and for all.
