With increasing urban expansion, mining projects, climate change, and allocation fights between user groups, the future of salmon in Alaska is now at a crossroads, and a conversation about their survival is timely and relevant. Listen as Salmon Crossroads explores the history, culture, economics, and possible future of salmon in Alaska in this ongoing series of episodes.
