How history's biggest wild salmon restoration project in the Klamath River happened, with Amy Bowers Cordalis

Dela

“My colleague looks at me [on my birthday] and is like, do you wanna blow up a dam!?” Native Yurok attorney and Indigenous advocate Amy Bowers Cordalis campaigned with her community for 20 years before getting the go ahead to remove the dams that had blocked the Klamath River and infamously killed 70,000+ salmon in 2002. Amy speaks with Climate Curious co-host Maryam Pasha to share the remarkable story of how she used everything from indigenous wisdom to high-stakes litigation to pull off the largest salmon restoration project in history! Recorded live at TED 2026.
