Mountains catch clouds, creating rivers that flow across valleys, into bays and meet the Pacific Ocean. Fresh water travels the land, nourishing people, animals, and plants. In harmony with this ecosystem, early people cared for and used trees and plants that provided shelter, food, and fibers for baskets. But this ecosystem is stressed: the land mined, forests leveled, rivers dammed and air polluted. Climate change brings hotter weather and rising waters. What can we do?
