At Seattle Pike Place Market tourists watch the salmon toss as stockpiles of Pacific salmon signal a crisis. Officials warn the Columbia and Snake rivers face steep declines from 16 million to 1.2 million adult salmon, with several species listed as threatened or endangered. Dam operations, hatcheries, habitat protection, and water management dominate talks as experts seek a recovery plan amid political and economic tensions.

Obesity Rise Across Race and Gender in US Adults
A National Center for Health Statistics study finds about one third of U.S. adults were overweight between 1980 and 1991, with obesity rates higher among Mexican American men and among women of Mexican American and Black groups. The study compares NHANES data from 1988–1991 to 1976–1980 and notes overall increases from 1980. An accompanying editorial cites low physical activity as a factor and calls for public awareness.
