@thebiologistisn Dr. Abbey,

I am a reporter for Capital Press, an agriculture newspaper for farmers and ranchers in the Pacific Northwest. I'd be interested in visiting with you further about this project for a potential story.

A look at what taking out the four dams on the lower Snake River would mean. The cost of electricity would skyrocket, and so would the cost of moving crops to export ports. More generators, roads and rail lines would have to be built. But there would likely be more salmon.

Absolutely bonkers story for @capitalpress. With California Forever, tech billionaires scooped up 60k acres of farmland to build a utopian community. There's secrecy, reports of bullying tactics, and a $500m lawsuit accusing landowners of price fixing.

John Helle, a third-generation sheep rancher in Western Montana, co-founded a wool clothing company called Duckworth Co. The brand sells shirts, hoodies, socks, hats and other clothing made with wool from the ranch's roughly 10,000 sheep.
