fucking miserable to have just seen that alaska is suing the epa over the pebble mine veto. ofc they're going straight to the supreme court, the one that just gutted the clean water act, the basis of the veto. of course.

it's not even having to fight its just...it feels like even when there are victories theyre so temporary. how do you celebrate the next win when the last one only stood for a few months

#we are going to collapse our salmon fisheries one way or another if it takes 300 lawsuits to do it #I'm just in my feelings about this one. Gonna go to bed sad is all #Idk I'm sure the company would have sued anyway I just hate to see it get fucking super expedited by alaska #I'm so proud of the work my colleagues I do for salmon every day #And at the same time I doubt that in a full career in restoration I could hit even a fraction of the value of Bristol bay preservation #HALF THE WORLD'S SOCKEYE #Oh well not in my power I'll keep working in culverts. Open up some more highly impacted habitat at home #Bailing out the titanic with a teacup #Anyway I'm gonna get some sleep so I can get up in the morning and keep at it and probably feel pretty good about it again tbh #This is just a vent post #Cause it does feel bad sometimes when you get hit by a surprise bad news headline right before bed
