Pebble Mine Threatens Alaska's Future
Description
Bristol Bay’s legendary salmon runs, worth over two billion dollars annually and vital to Alaska’s economy and culture, are under threat from the Pebble mine—a massive project that could devastate spawning grounds. Despite decades of opposition from coastal communities, tribes, fishermen, and even the EPA, renewed interest is surging due to AI-driven demand for copper. Senator Dan Sullivan, accused of taking campaign cash from Pebble backers while ignoring widespread Alaskan opposition, is now a focal point of frustration. With elections looming, Alaskans are rallying to elect leaders who will protect their fisheries and way of life from destructive resource development.
