Progression of the Project

For my project, I hope to do some sort of paper or presentation about the influence of salmon in this region and how it is a cultural icon. This icon effects the cities economically, socially, and environmentally. I want to look at how salmon runs are hurting due to climate change, intrusion from humans, and what is being done to help restore salmon runs and how it can remain an icon if salmon are disappearing. This also effects local Native American tribes, cities, and communities with depleting runs and rivers. I hope to investigate this and see how media can help salmon and give it it's help it needs.
