    The Last Ocean - Official Trailer 

     

    The Ross Sea, Antarctica is the world's most untouched and intact marine ecosystem. Scientists describe it as a 'living laboratory', a place that can teach us about the workings of all marine ecosystems. But the fishing industry has now found its way to the Ross Sea, targeting Antarctic toothfish and unless fishing is stopped the natural balance of this unique ecosystem will be lost forever.

    Help us save The Last Ocean!

    The United States and New Zealand have drawn up a proposal for a marine sanctuary covering 1.6 million square kilometers (640,000 square miles) of the Ross Sea, which would be the world’s largest reserve.

    Take Action - Don't Raise the Dam and Flood the Merced River

    Image from Planiglobe

    A very important action alert from American Rivers.

    The Merced River is in danger from a bill trying to de-designate it as a protected Wild and Scenic river in order to raise a dam.

    The bill [HR 934] would mark the first time a federal Wild and Scenic River is essentially de-designated for the purpose of raising a dam. It's a terrible precedent that could affect Wild and Scenic Rivers everywhere — and we need to stop it.

    Please take action today

    Take Action: ODFW Looking to Expand Wild Steelhead Harvest 

    WTF Oregon?

    From Osprey Steelhead News comes this very important call to action!!!!!!

    The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) is in the midst of developing a new management plan for Oregon's coastal rivers. Among the more controversial provisions is ODFW's plan to open wild steelhead retention in several rivers that are among the last best wild steelhead producing watersheds on the coast. Among the rivers that would be opened to harvesting wild steelhead are the Nehalem, Trask, Big Elk Creek in the Yaquina watershed, Lake Creek in the Siuslaw watershed, the Salmon, the Lower and Middle Umpqua River, SF Coos, NF Coquille and EF Coquille. This combined with ODFWs focus on harvest opportunities supported by hatcheries, and their increasing reliance on wild broodstock programs that rob productivity from wild steelhead populations to provide harvest opportunity poses a major threat to the future of wild steelhead on the Oregon Coast.

    Please take a few minutes to call or email ODFW's Conservation and Recovery Assistant Program Manager Tom Stahl and voice your opinion against the harvest of wild steelhead in Oregon.
