2. There was an excellent documentary film on efforts to stop this tragedy, called "Unearth."

I went to a screening of it in Princeton, attended by the producers.

Unearth.

Guess what the mining company was trying to claim? I'll tell you, their mine would be "green" because so called "renewable energy" needs copper.

It's a lot more than 27 salmon; since the guys featured in the film who fought the first attempt to open the mine, defeated during the Biden Presidency, made their living as salmon fishermen.

Trust me, this will be sold as a victory for so called "renewable energy."
