Frontline covers the battle over a copper and gold mine in Alaska in this documentary.

How do we balance the needs of the global economy with the needs of the local ecology? Can an open pit mine be environmentally safe?

At a time when the World's wild salmon runs are dying due to warming, crappy logging practices, open net fish farms, etc, wanted to put a giant new mine called in SE Alaska near Bristol Bay and the world's largest wild salmon run there was near universal opposition but the usual crowd fought for it saying 'jobs' & 'economy' like they'd keep us in fish

So this is announcement is good news!

diversity and productivity unrivaled anywhere in North America." subscriber.politicopro.com/f/?
