"Peanut Head" • This post courtesy of our friends at COEXTINCTION @coextinctionfilm ❌ In 30 seconds what is #March4TheDams? ❌ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ March For The Dams is a 22 day walk from Portland to the Ice Harbour Dam. Anyone can join, and the goal’s to get people everywhere to put pressure on the Army Corps of Engineers (ACE), Bonneville Power Administration and the US government to breach the 4 lower Snake River dams in 2020. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❌ JOIN THE MARCH NOW ❌ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you can’t come march, submit a public comment online to the ACE (instructions below). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The 4 lower Snake River dams (4LSRD) kill millions of salmon and cause massive, unresolved environmental issues, including starving endangered orcas. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Some still think these old dams produce needed power. But actually they produce less than 3% of a power surplus and cost taxpayers hundreds of millions, and we’re already using more effective energy alternatives. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The 4LSRD’s inefficacy has been debated for decades, but we’re out of time. This history in the making. #WeAreTheOrca #March4TheDams #WeCoexist ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ With support from @coextinctionfilm @little.gypsea @pnwprotectors ✊ and @seashepherd @captainpaulwatson @jamie_s_margolin @jannerobinson @dam_sense @oceanicpreservationsociety @patagoniaportland @slatermoorephotography @for.the.wild @balubluefoundation and more ✊ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ — ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ INSTRUCTIONS TO SUBMIT A PUBLIC COMMENT TO THE ACE: 1.

There are 72 Southern Resident Killer Whales left. They are starving to death, dying as the 4 Lower Snake River Dams cut off salmon runs and reduce their access to food. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Campaigners are marching from Portland to Ice Harbor Dam, across the west coast of the USA, a journey that will take 22 days. On the day they reach the dam, a rally will be held. People will join in solidarity around the world. It’s time to breach the dams! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Visit www.marchforthedams.com to learn more, or join the Facebook event (link in bio). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #march4thedams⁣ @coextinctionfilm @little.gypsea @pnwprotectors ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ While submitting a public comment, you can write your own, or you can use the suggested one below: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ The Southern Resident killer whales and Snake River salmon and steelhead will not survive this EIS study process. As a first step, the federal agencies can and need to begin breaching the four lower Snake River dams this year. As a parallel step, the agencies can use this new EIS process to undertake future actions. The federal agencies can no longer afford to drag the process out with another EIS that will take years while the salmon and orca go extinct. We have tried expensive bypass systems and more spill, and still, 2019 was another year of costly efforts to recover Snake River salmon with no results. Federal agencies need to begin the breaching of the Snake River dams this year. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ Thank you for your interest, engagement and support! ✊ ⁣ ⁣ And thank you to @crazyorangutanlady for the inspo for this post 👊 ⁣ ⁣ Amazing post @coextinctionfilm ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣ #wearetheorca #wecoexist #coextinction #racingextinction #saveourwildsalmon #nofishnoblackfish #blackfish #saveoursalmon #srkw #southernresidentkillerwhale #extinctionrebellion #extinctionisforever #pnwonderland #washington #4lsrd #oregon #protest #jointheprotest #documentaryfilm. https://www.instagram.com/p/B9SOtrwhSL7/?igshid=qz7yv444hble
