Wow, maybe you could get a doubleheader of bleak forecasts, is he Gunnar Knapps kissin' cousin?

This same week biologists at the forum on king salmon issues mentioned that sockeye will be gone from the Gulf of Alaska by the end of this century...Will forage and other fish be gone too? Unless they start to feed their fake fish with something other than real, wild fish there will be no farmed salmon...

anonymous, that is very interesting about the reds leaving us. why would that be? They are plankton eaters so does that mean the plankton are leaving us? Or is it that the water will be too warm for red? Maybe its the same thing. Either way, its grim.So we have to go up to Barrow to put a net in? Or learn to love carp? The carp and tilapia can eat garbage. But I was hoping my great grandkids could still fish. Is it all called CO2 problems?
