For thousands of years, millions of salmon completed their epic oceanic
journeys and returned home to the estuaries and rivers of early Vancouver.
Much has changed in the last 150 years – most of the streams are gone and
urban development and runoff impact the remaining salmon. Fernando Lessa,
author and photographer of Urban Salmon, will take us on an incredible
photographic journey underneath our local rivers to experience the natural
beauty of our urban waterways and inspire us to protect these fragile
ecosystems.
This is part of the One Earth speaker series. Our Earth is full of
incredible diversity! See it through the eyes of scientists, naturalists,
and photographers as they share their inspirational stories and knowledge
