SUMMARY:Dammed to Extinction
DESCRIPTION:This documentary features the life's work of orca whale researc
 her Ken Balcomb and the beloved Puget Sound Southern Resident orca\, of wh
 ich only 73 remain. The orcas' prize food is Snake River chinook salmon --
  but those salmon are on the precipice of extinction due to four obsolete 
 dams that choke off access to thousands of miles of rivers. "Dammed to Ext
 inction" shows how removing these dams will save money\, salmon\, and orca
 .\n\nChinook salmon are in trouble -- with less than one percent of their 
 historic abundance returning\; this year’s numbers are particularly dism
 al. Dams have been the main culprit behind salmon's demise. The orca are s
 tarving. A broad and growing coalition of scientists\, economists\, conser
 vationists\, and citizens say removing these Lower Snake River fish killin
 g dams is the best chance we have to bring abundant runs of salmon and the
  orca that rely on them.\n\nThe timing of this film -- and its urgent call
  to action -- could not be better. Northwest salmon and Southern Resident 
 orcas need our help today. Citizens regionally and nationally are calling 
 for bold leadership and urgent action. Northwest elected officials have be
 gun to step up and advocate for some big changes to restore our salmon\, p
 rotect our orcas and invest in our communities.\n\nEastern and Western Was
 hington are one watershed\, and this issue brings us together\, to stand u
 p and protect what we love. Restoring the lower Snake River and its chinoo
 k salmon populations is our biggest river and salmon restoration opportuni
 ty on the West Coast. Join us for the film and discussion afterward\, on w
 hat orcas need -- and what we all can do together to get it done.
