Watch to learn about the impact of Toxic Algal Blooms on the lower Snake River and the surrounding communities and ecosystems🐟

This past summer, we saw 11 toxic algal blooms (TABs) across the Snake River. This is the third consecutive year that we have seen TABs on the lower Snake River. TABs grow in warm, stagnant water with added nutrients. The lower Snake River dams create these exact conditions.

Mark your calendars for Oct. 28 at 5:30pm PT! 📆 Join Save Our wild Salmon and 350 Washington for an hour of taking action for our communities, ecosystems, and climate.🌎
