Chinook salmon found naturally hatching in Upper Klamath River for first time in a century The Klamath Tribes are celebrating evidence of Chinook salmon spawning in Klamath River tributary.

After big dams on the upper Klamath River in far northern CA were removed in 2024, Chinook (king) salmon migrated upstream for the first time in 100+ years--and now they have hatched.

Kiddo was very offended that he didn't even check in to make sure she was ok. Later I realized we came in the afternoon, around 3-4 pm, and people had probably been day drinking for too many hours already. Not an excuse though - gotta keep each other safe and be good community members!

Happy #ladds500 to everyone except the dude trying to go twice as fast as everyone else who zoomed around my 9 year old and knocked her over and made her cry. Come on now- it's a parade, not a race! #portlandsky #bikesky

there is no politician so irreplaceable that we must overlook sexual misconduct because nobody else could possibly fill their shoes

Guess who's back!!!!

I know many of you value geography, environmental sciences, climate science, water resources, and interdisciplinary education related to all of the above and more- if so please sign and share!

It's not too late for us to make a case for our program! We have until April 15 to share additional feedback with administrators. We are hoping to gather community support to help make our case.

Same! Many of my students are vocal opponents and it is heartening.

He also spent 1 billion dollars killing wind energy projects that would have brought in a shit ton of money in jobs and revenue.

Happy trans day of visibility. May all trans kids feel safe, loved, cherished, and celebrated for exactly who they are. 🏳️‍⚧️

Destroying desalination plants is an unspeakable atrocity, according to the woke lib, four star general, Normal Schwarzkopf Jr

Turns out those Chinook salmon that finally showed up in the Upper Klamath last year were doing more than just posing for photos.

I want fully staffed public pools, and libraries that are cathedrals to public goods and a society where walling yourself off with money is viewed as sociopathic.

At the end of the day, this has always been the core tension in environmentalism. It's Malthus and Ehrlich, and it's also Hardin versus Ostrom, and so on: some people will just never believe we can - or more honestly, just don't want to - share a planet with other people. (Too bad for them.)

If they want our public money I think we should be able to hold all public events there. 5th grade graduation? Moda center. High school basketball game? Moda center. You want the taxpayers to pay for your already functioning stadium to be upgraded? Tax dollars=public funds=public space.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.

"I'd much rather you do the work, turn the assignment in late, and learn something, than not turn anything in at all."

A striking feature of Trump and his team is: they somehow imagine a world in which they are the only actors, only ones with power, and whether it's Tehran or Minneapolis are surprised when it turns out others do. There are many kinds of power and many nations with power.

The difference is the blazers money is an investment in our future and money for schools is uh

Surely the kids can all just become professional basketball players when they grow up.

but somehow there's ✨ nO mOnEy ✨ in all of Oregon for k-12 or higher ed.
