[natgeo] On November 25, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers rejected Pebble Mine's permit application to mine the headwaters of Alaska's Bristol Bay watershed.
For decades, this proposed copper and gold mine has sparked heated resistance from commercial fishermen, tribal groups, and environmentalists over concerns that runoff from the mine could cause irreversible damage to one of Alaska's most abundant ecosystems.
A vast wilderness located on the Alaska Peninsula, the Bristol Bay watershed is home to the world's most productive wild salmon habitat, a $1.5 billion commercial salmon fishery, and numerous tribal groups who rely on salmon for subsistence.
It's also home to the world's largest congregations of brown bears, like this mother and cub photographed near Chenik, Alaska.
This recent news is a tremendous win for the environment.

Yet until the project is vetoed under the Clean Water Act, there is still work to be done to secure permanent, community-supported protections that will keep these ecosystems healthy and wild forever.

[natgeo] Sharlee Sifsof untangles a salmon from her family's net in Ekuk, Alaska. During high season in Alaska's Bristol Bay, subsistence nets such as these can yield thousands of pounds of salmon at a time. The commercial fishery brings in about $1.5 billion a year.
On November 24, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers rejected Pebble Mine's permit application to mine the headwaters of the Bristol Bay watershed.
For decades, this proposed copper and gold mine has met fierce opposition from commercial fishermen, tribal groups, and environmentalists over concerns that the mine could cause irreversible damage to the world's most productive salmon habitat.
“Our work is not done," writes United Tribes of Bristol Bay President Robert Heyano. "We will continue to advocate for permanent protections for Bristol Bay until we are sure that our pristine lands and waters will remain intact for our children’s children and all future generations."

[natgeo] Mountains meet tundra plains in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. On January 6, the Trump Administration began to auction off drilling rights for the refuge's coastal plain, the calving grounds for the porcupine caribou herd that has sustained the region's Indigenous people for millennia.
The Gwich'in people, who call the plains the "Sacred Place Where Life Begins" and rely on the caribou for food security, are adamantly opposed to the sale.
“Oil and gas development in the coastal plain is wholly incompatible with the Gwich'in worldview. Our identity, culture, and way of life our at stake," said Honorable Galen Gilbert, chief of the Arctic Village Council, in congressional testimony. "Like our ancestors, we will never give up."
