		<description><![CDATA[SEATTLE &#8211; Many Northwesterners ask a lot of questions before buying their food. Is it local? Is it organic? Is it wild? But when it comes to seafood, they may be missing the most important question for the global climate: is it frozen? John Ryan explains. At Seattle&#8217;s Pike Place Market, a historic sign on top of the main building says, &#8220;Meet the Producer.&#8221; But that&#8217;s not so likely any more, with much of the produce coming from far away. Fishmongers: &#8220;Three-quarter pound sockeye!&#8221; Those are fishmongers at the Pike Place Fish Company as they toss a customer&#8217;s order of salmon through the air. I spoke with their assistant manager, Sam Samson. Ryan: &#8220;Where is your salmon from?&#8221; Samson: &#8220;Alaska and Alaska and Alaska. We&#8217;re selling frozen sockeye salmon from Kodiak. I&#8217;d love to say Washington, believe me.&#8221; Samson likes supporting local producers, and he likes satisfying customers who want fresh, local seafood. But a few blocks up Pike Street, a global conference full of government and industry types concerned with seafood is learning that fresh and local might be overrated when it comes to fish. Tyedmers: &#8220;In many cases, your better choice overall, from an environment or energy-related perspective, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[NORTH BONNEVILLE, Wash. – Banner runs of salmon and steelhead are migrating up some Northwest rivers this summer. Not since dams were constructed on the Columbia and Snake Rivers have this many sockeye salmon returned. Meanwhile, the 2010 summer steelhead run is on pace to be the second highest on record on the Columbia. The modern record for steelhead was set in 2001.Correspondent Tom Banse explores possible explanations for the unexpectedly high salmon returns. Bonneville Dam was finished in 1937. Ever since, fish counters have sat in front of big underwater picture windows there. Fish ladders at the dam funnel spawners past the windows. Jane Jackson: “Whoa! Look at that big, big Chinook&#8230; Steelhead&#8230;” Park ranger Jane Jackson calls out the fish as a human counter keeps track with a clicker. Sound: (clicker) Jane Jackson: “Wow! A wild Chinook&#8230; and another one. Hatchery, hatchery&#8230;.” Tom Banse: “We’ve got a big group here. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven coming by the window&#8230;” Rarely have salmon and steelhead filled the windows as they have this year. Jane Jackson: “Oh, that one has got a scrape.” The run of endangered Snake River sockeye has set a modern record. The returns are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You’ve heard of micro-breweries. How about &#8220;micro-canneries?&#8221; They specialize in locally-caught, hand-packed albacore and salmon. A growing number of commercial fishing families are choosing to can their catch themselves. They can’t begin to compete with supermarket prices. But some of the custom-canned fish is reaching farmers markets, mail order catalogs, food co-ops, and the internet. Correspondent Tom Banse reports from Bellingham.
