New paper from my @cig-uw.bsky.social colleagues on the importance of direct funding to community-led organizations to advance their own resilience priorities.
This case study is based on a small-grants program run by the NW Climate Resilience Collaborative, which was terminated by NOAA in May.

For the first time in more than 100 years, Chinook salmon have been spotted at the confluence of the Sprague and Williamson rivers in Chiloquin, the government seat of the Klamath Tribes in Southern Oregon.
Salmon clear last Klamath dams, reaching Williamson and Sprague rivers
Just a year after four dams were removed, a group of fall Chinook have migrated nearly 300 miles into the Upper Klamath Basin.

Washington's drought is so bad state officials are turning off the water for an entire river basin.
I called an irrigator to talk about it and he said the cuts don't affect him. That's because he already ran out of water last month. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Holy shit:
Stateline spoke to nearly a dozen firefighters, agency staffers and contractors, who said that top officials assigned to the fire deployed the crews to a remote location under false pretenses so federal agents could check their immigration status.
