Chinook salmon have recolonised 88% of their historic range on the Klamath River, with more than 13,000 fish passing the old Iron Gate Dam site in 2025, up from 7,700 the year before. Two years after the dams’ removal, it’s going better than anyone predicted. buff.ly/pToC9gB #ShareGoodNewsToo

What links European farmed salmon to Spanish winter tomatoes? Overfishing in West Africa for salmon feed has collapsed local fisheries, driving often fatal human migration to Spain, where displaced workers then face exploitation in Almería's greenhouses. bit.ly/4fVciGZ #EdibleEmpire #FoodSystems

Honestly, I am absolutely disgusted by academics suggesting that AI can do the reading and writing for you. At a certain point, what you're bragging about is fraud. And in a broader sense, what you're contributing to is the erosion of knowledge and the destruction of trust in academic publishing.
