Automobile tires, not climate change, are killing West Coast salmon

12/11/2020

Just last year, PBS and Popular Science were screaming about "climate change" being the cause of salmon deaths. It seems they were wrong - dead wrong. New research from the University of Washington published December 3 in the journal Science, exonerates "climate change" in the salmon-killing caper and finds a surprise villain: an additive to automobile tires, not "climate change." In fact, the researchers specifically ruled out climate change-driven water temperature increases as a cause.
