Climate change,\u00a0combined with legacy problems from poor development and poor fisheries management, is having a major impact on wild salmon and steelhead across their range in the North Pacific.<\/p>\r\n

From persistent drought conditions to heat waves to warmer oceans, we\u2019re seeing increased climate events.<\/p>\r\n

Wild Salmon Center\u2019s approach to climate change is two-fold.<\/p>\r\n

Download our climate framework\u00a0 \u201cReady for Change\u201d.<\/a><\/p>\r\n

One, we\u2019re working to accelerate\u00a0targeted local actions that reverse historic problems and restore the resilience of rivers and fish. This gives wild salmon time to adapt to changing conditions, while the world works to stop climate change.<\/p>\r\n

Read our climate framework \u201cReady for Change\u201d<\/a> to dig into this approach.<\/p>\r\n
