from The Sustainable Angler · host The Sustainable Angler
In this episode of The Sustainable Angler, I interview "Salmon: A Fish, the Earth and the History of Their Common Fate" author, Mark Kurlansky and we kick off the conversation talking a little fishing; then take a deeper dive into the environmental threats to salmon, such as: deforestation, urban sprawl, insecticides, agricultural practices, but mostly, climate change; and Mark's "aha" moment when he looks back through history from the Industrial Revolution to now and asks "why is nobody learning anything?" from our mistakes with salmon rivers.
