In a battle over dams and salmon, what will happen when one side wins?

Wild salmon are struggling in the Pacific Northwest. And in some cases, one of the culprits is also a key producer of clean energy. But dams on the Snake River get in the way when salmon try to migrate to and from their historic spawning grounds. That’s why tribes and some scientists are calling for their removal.
