157 - Joe Anderson Talks Dam Removal and Fisheries Recovery on Washington’s Elwha River

On this episode, Anders Halverson talks to Dr. Joe Anderson of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife about fish restoration in the Elwha River, the site of one of the biggest and most significant dam removal projects in the United States. Since the dams were removed  in 2014, salmon, steelhead, bull trout, and other fish have recolonized and adapted to habitat that had not been available to them for more than a century. Research on the changes in fish distribution and abundance, genetics, and life histories have already yielded several surprises and show just how resilient such systems can be.

D&I Podcast Ep. 14 - Inclusion can happen now and here‘s how

Aaron Bunch (co-host) emphasizes that inclusion can happen now—in an instant—with genuine positive communication directed at someone who has a different identity than you. A person feeling included really comes down to an individual having a sense of belonging and value within a group of people. Over the past year as hosts of the Fisheries Diversity and Inclusion Podcast have interviewed guests, significant themes have emerged in context to “inclusion.”
We challenge you to use inclusion principles into your daily routine and set the following goals with people who are not like you: (1) find commonality through daily chats and do more listening than talking, (2) become a mentor, whether its formal or informal, (3) build meaningful relationships, and (4) be willing to be inclusive out loud as an ally.
The publication discussed in the podcast can be found here:
