Got fight the mining companies from there too. We need help in Alaska bad. The Pebble Catastrophe is moving full speed ahead. These guys are full on Demonic and do not give a crap about people, fish or any living thing. All they care about is purposeful destruction of any environment that they think they can profit off of. Trump era deregulation as much as some of it was necessary as I am not anti-business but you've gotta have discernment. That means go where living things aren't. NOT part of the Pebble game plan. Their plan is to destroy the wild fishery on purpose so their friends in the fish farming business can then build fish farms all up and down the Alaska coastline. Then expand the mining district forever until the entire state is beholden to the evil of their ways. Truly sickening what these people have already done. I cannot imagine what kind of evil they will purport upon the native Alaskans in the area to get this unnecessary and dangerous project started.

The combination of ancient indigenous and natural beauty, the feeling of fear and rapture in that sacred space, Katie Lee's own joie de vivre both then and now, the ache of realizing the magnitude of what was lost, all captured in stunning still and moving images and backed by a perfect soundscape ("Switzerland" by Daughter; amazing choice). Just beautiful filmmaking. Bravo.

Ah switzerland, the only european country that has the actual right idea by building actual new dams. 60% hydropower , one of the greanest countries out there. Lots of electrified railways all over the country too. And stable energy too, unlike germany, where every time the wind doesn't blow and it's cloudy, the lignite power plants are started right up. Girls running around naked on the other hand, is something I support wholeheartedly.

I’m a licensed professional engineer that specializes in dams. This was a very well made documentary. I especially felt sympathetic for cultures who were connected to a free flowing river. However, I would like to point out for discussion, that hydropower is not the only benefit of a dam. They provide drinking water for millions. Perhaps more importantly, they control floods. By impounding water and letting it out at a controlled rate dams saves lives. No question that dams inhibit the migration of fish species. This is despite our best efforts to mitigate the issue. Earnest trying to meet both sides of the issue. I am gratefully a public servant, and will continue to engineer dams to the best of my ability based on what the public I serve desires. I just wanted to give another point of view other than “hydropower vs. salmon or other migratory fish”. Dams do so much more than providing hydropower.

Both nuclear and hydro have costs. The biggest cost is the loss of salmon and other riparian species - something we MAY be able to manage with a more mature view of hydro projects and a view of equitable management of resources. Nuclear power has only 2 problems; the cost (nuclear is the highest cost electrical generation source, period) and our failure to commit to a final repository for waste disposal. Some are incorrectly making claims about 'new engineering' and thorium, but ignoring that both have waste disposal requirements. Even if spent fuel is ignored (thorium would theoretically be completely consumed) contaminated equipment, ore and manufacturing residue are still hot enough to need care in disposal. All of these issues need to be balanced and the cost added to the decision. All solutions have costs. Claiming they do not exist is sheer fantasy, and while I enjoy reading fantasy I don't base my real world decisions on it.

@@maroufsultanzada4334 The electric power is easily replaced now by just a few windmills. Three or four wind turbines will generate as much energy as one entire dam, and as the technology becomes more refined it is getting to the place where even the slightest breeze will turn the blades. There is no place on the planet where wind doesn't blow at the height of a standard wind turbine for more than a few seconds, which makes them an ideal form of electric generation. They do have their drawbacks and environmental impact, but the impact they have is far less than that caused by hydro-electric dams. I'm sure as technology advances more options will be added to the mix. I have one idea which I believe would work extremely well, though since I'm not an engineer I can't get anyone to listen, or to take it seriously. I don't care if I never make a cent off of it if it will help reduce or eliminate the need to burn fossil fuels and or damming up rivers. The basic idea is to use light focused through a series of lenses and mirrors onto a metal block which thus heated, and with water pumped through it, would generate steam to turn turbines. At the same time it can be used to pressurize large pressure tanks which could be used during the night or in cloudy weather to keep the turbines running, thus providing electricity 24/7. I give this idea freely for the sake of the planet and future generations of humankind throughout the world. It's simple, and all it needs is an engineer and some money to bring it to reality. Old buildings and abandoned structures could be given new life this way. Abandoned steel mills and automotive plants in the rust belt could be given new life by mounting fresnel lenses built into the roofs of these buildings would be the first step in focusing the light to create the necessary heat. Whereas electricity could be stored in batteries, pressure tanks would have much less of an overall environmental impact than batteries would, and the recycling of pressure tanks would be much less of a problem than dumping tons of spent batteries with all their heavy metals and acids onto the land. When a pressure tank has gone through its maximum number of safe cycles it would be much less damaging to melt them down and make them anew. All the way around it's a much cleaner solution, and also brings the possibility of new jobs to a part of the country which has suffered greatly from the exit of jobs. So there it is. Stupidly simple, just no one has thought of it before. If anyone knows of an engineer, pass it on. It could be the way most electricity is made in the future.

But clearly many such as those on the Snake River are not necessary, even truly detrimental. And, thanks for making me laugh! Brilliant protest!

I am glad to see an unused dam go, why maintain something that isn’t being used.. and since a boy I have always wanted to see the Native America before settlers came, so this to me is monumental to happen in my life and to a dam right next to my house, I get to witness Temple streams freedom and rebirth.

Born in the early 1950's & Grew up in Southern California, as a kid i got a job a a bait-boy in Newport Harbor. In a few short years i watched the bait fish known as anchovies become very scarce and expensive, A net full or full scoop of bait was about $1.25, and half scoop .75 cents. By the time i was 14 years old a scoop was $5-$7. Eventually i got my dream job as a deckhand on a sport fishing boat fishing out off the Channel islands, in 2 short years i saw people who once brought home gunny sacks full of fish from a half or full day boat to maybe catching 1 or 2 edible fish on a good day, they would still catch lots of mackeral which they would keep for pet food or bury in their gardens to fertilize trees and such. Fish were becoming scarce, so i gave that career up and became a cook & then a chef, a job i could travel to resorts and work, with my new past time becoming fly fishing in fresh water, something i did as a kid in the High Sierras on summer vacations I remember my grandmother telling me about catching Salmon on Malibu creek just north of Los Angeles and that Redwood trees once grew along the coast there when she was a kid back in 1900. I fly fished and traveled throughout the west working in the resorts & restraunt business, Then by 1973 i realized nearly everywhere i went was fast becoming fished out, I had a revelation & I quit eating Seafood and Salmon as well as Trout & freshwater fish altogether. A hard thing to do after being raised on fish, diving for and eating fresh lobster & abalone since i was a kid. Frying that fresh caught trout next to the creek at Yosemite, or catching little golden trout In the Sequoia Wilderness in the early 1960's. I moved to the Big Island of Hawaii in 1974 and was reborn, literally lived off the sea for 4 years, worked on Kona sport fishing "trophy boats" whenever i needed a little spending money, but for the most part i just enjoyed living off the sea, camping on the beach, like being in paradise, and then i experienced the same thing happening over there. Shellfish and shore caught fish were becoming exploited & getting more and more scarce, the trophy boats were bringing in less and less, smaller and smaller fish, which not long before no respectable sportsman would consider keeping or eating,( an early form of catch and release consciousness) and with many days being skunked with nothing being caught, The icehouse where sport fisherman had fish weighed, cleaned and stored for the sportsmen customers were becoming just ice houses with very few fish, maybe 1/4 full on the best of days, so again, the writing was on the wall, And i quit that sporting life and eating fish altogether. That time for good . Getting used to eating hamburgers, deli sandwhiches and pizza was a very tough go. I still cringe when i see a hamburger or have to eat one out of respect or courtesy to my host at a BBQ,( i refuse to eat hot dogs) instead of having a nice cut of prime beef , wild game or a nice filet, Even though i worked in high end resort kitchens most of my life, by the time i was 40 ( 30++ years ago) i demoted myself from being a resort chef/ sous chef to working in small resort town greasy spoon cafes as a cook or hash slinger. Preferring breakfast cook as i did not have to cook fish or hamburgers. Just Bacon & sausages, which was bad enough form of payback, as i find pork totally discusting as an edible food source. Hang around enough Obese Bacon eating, beer swilling, bait and barb hooked fishermen in life, only reinforced my bias attitude towards many of todays overfed sportsmen.. My beloved 100 year old hand wrapped Scottish fly rod heirloom still sits broken in it's original cardboard case, the last fish it ever caught was a smaller 30 pound saltwater Tarpon in Florida, which broke the pole.

Patagonia >>>> This film on the Damnation in America is the most innovative representation of showing both sides of the Dam debate. I think that we all can agree that the Salmon are the highest priority in wild areas of our country Further construction of Damming our wild rivers should be halted to preserve native fish habitat. I am opposed to the Damming of the Susitna River in Alaska, this would be an environmental disaster for the fish and animals that inhabit this pristine area of Alaska. Thanks Matt Stoecker & Travis Rummel for producing such a phenomenal film that sears into our memories what is the right thing to do regarding the protection of our Wild and Scenic Riverways >>>>

Thank You 😊! Dams are one of the biggest ecological disasters of all time, along with the fish hatcheries and fish pens. The real reason for the Dams was to starve or flood out Indigenous People. Most man-made lakes are on top of Indigenous camps, and villages, and most main roads are built on their trails. Not only do Dams ruin the ecology, Dams stop the new sand from getting to the ocean to form and maintain beaches. The fish can't go upstream to spawn, breaking it down even further. It affects every animal that counts on the rivers to live. They thought they could fix the fish extinction with hatcheries but it turned out to be a big mistake too. The fish from hatcheries are invasive, killing off the wild fish and changing the DNA of the fish, making smaller, weaker species that die off quickly, causing less and less healthy fish every year. Some places have lost all Native fish species because of the hatcheries. They never needed to block off whole rivers for power either! That was just an excuse. They can get just as much energy from half or no Dams at all. It was about controlling people and exterminating Indigenous and unwanted People. The hatcheries are still operating because of the sports fishing industry and the profits sports fishing brings. It's not worth it. Stop the hatcheries and take down the Dams or we will perish, just like the fish. I have been telling people about the reasons why Dams need to be removed and it needs to be known why they were put in, in the first place: "To remove Indigenous People and control all of the people.

I absolutely love and respect the approach taken in this documentary. Too often we who love nature and wish to preserve it, expend our energy villifying the ignorant, accosting them with condescension and verbal abuse. Many of us never stop to realize that the vast majority of people wish to be reasonable. Often all it takes is a little patience, compassion, and unadulterated truth/information to bring people around. The most counterproductive thing we can do is approach people in a manner that makes them feel threatened culturally, individually, or politically. Unfortunately there are many activists amongst us who do much more harm than good because they do not take this aspect of human nature into account. I would challenge anyone who is interested in environmental activism to study the science of human motivation as diligently as they study the ecology of the issue they care about. Without understanding both you will likely hurt your cause more than help it.

Genuine Question Here: If we were to remove all of this hydro-electric generation capacity, what would we replace it with? It couldn't be wind or solar because they lack the density and continual generation of hydro. You would trade the degredation of rivers for the development of giant wind or solar farms and mining to produce the photo voltaics. So we would have to trade this capacity for expanding fossil fuels or nuclear generation. The impact on our environment is real and it is terrible. But the reality is society is not going backwards, we are consuming more energy day by day, not less. So what is a truly holistic and forward thinking solution here?
@leviharrison4127

Wind, geothermal, and solar are all significantly underused. The key to solar is the storage, new battery cell technology is not far off. We could be doing hydro significantly better, improving ability of upstream flow (the biggest problem), building less dams and using technology to keep the turbine spinning just as fast.

Besides, batteries are made of things that need to be mined from the earth. Not a holistically good idea. Same goes for geothermal. Highly Expensive, often releases greenhouse gases, and destabilizes the surface of the earth. Several studies about how it is negatively effecting the environment. Hydro electric energy production is just about the least destructive form man has ever devised. Perfect, no.

Ben Chavez in the current way we think about and create batteries no, there are some interesting alternatives. Even in our current battery cell tech and the way it’s going we could eliminate many hydroelectric plants by storing that. Geothermal energy technology is also in its infancy, I believe it will evolve to be better. Several buildings on my college campus are geothermal powered so I believe there’s hope there. It gives off significantly less greenhouse gases than fossil fuels tho. In the end it’s not going to be just one thing but a combination of many.

I can't believe the silliness of many of the comments/responses to this film! Specifically, I am referring to the comments where people say that the film it has opened their eyes about how terrible hydro dams are...It looks to me like a bunch of kayakers and salmon fishing special interest groups want you to think that blowing up hydroelectric dams will return us to a more perfect state of "Nature". Destroying a nearly carbon-free method of power generation needs to be done only after all the ramifications have been well thought out....But, this docu is a feel good, fact-free, environmental porn piece that is utterly free from any such analysis. Should some of these days be removed? Maybe, I guess? But watching this film brought me no closer to answering the question and felt rather like viewing propaganda. Effective propaganda, I realize after viewing many of these comments!

I know this won't get many views, but I would just like to point out that the South Fork Dam incident didn't happen randomly. The dam was originally built very well, but a man by the name of Henry Fisk came along and forced the dam to be widened when his carriage couldn't fit through it's pathway. He was one of a few wealthy members of society that actually owned the dam and the surrounding lake. They used the area as a country club. When the rebuilding of the dam hurt the structural integrity of the dam, it broke free and flooded the town below. The towns people might have been caught off guard, but Fisk was warned repeatedly by the dam workers and managers. He could have just got a smaller carriage instead of destroying an entire town. He screwed up and people died.

In my opinion better fish ladders or streams could be built around the dams . Here in southern Ontario there are some ladders on many Great Lakes river dams but I think artificial streams could be built around the dam would be much more efficient and allow greater access for the fish . Another great problem is the young fish go through the turbines or gates which has a huge mortality rate on their return to the sea or lake

You are right nuclear is the right way to go. I don't think a dam has averted any catastrophe, you got the destruction of wildlife. and you got a higher evaporation rate due to the water staying still and just being heated by the sun. Like I really don't get why America built massive cities in warm areas. That's really dumb. Diverted loads of water. I mean sure you could have a city but you should have put a cap on it. You could use Coal plants or airplanes filled with gases to fly over the area to cool down an area. Artificial clouds. This would stop evaporation stoping draught. Nuclear + AIrplane and choice of any gas to release would be the best, with the planes you can pick your mix of gases for the atmosphere control. But how many people will like the government putting flying gasses over your water supply?

You couldn’t be more wrong. The dam is doing its critical job. There were many reasons the dam was built. Water storage, flood control, irrigation, power generation and recreation. Every one of these duties is still 100% being performed. As you said the reservoir is still holding significant amounts of water. When the Colorado River floods (and it’s floods are spectacular) the Glenn Canyon Dam is there to hold the huge and deadly water. The Colorado could never support the levels of irrigation it does without its dams. The dam has generated years and years of cheap hydroelectric power. It may be paused until the river cycles through another period of floods. While the pool is currently greatly reduced, the recreation opportunities are fabulous as there are many canyons to discover that have been invisible for more than 40 years. No, Glenn Canyon is still doing the job it was built to do, and the Southwest is still benefiting. . The Colorado goes through incredible cycles. It has done this for millions if not billions of years. Nature doesn’t perform on man’s clock. Nature does what it does. This is the reason behind the planning of a dam that will hold over two years of river flow. (See ? Those old engineers were very smart) They anticipated these cycles. They only had 20% of the flow data we have now. And we only have a pinpoint on a chart of the lifespan of the river. This is a classic human problem seeing something in nature and having no ability to control it. Ask yourself; is Lake Powell 75% empty or 25% full ? The answer defines you.
