Maia was in her home when pesticides from an aerial spraying on timberlands behind her house drifted into her home. She went to the health clinic to discover there were pesticides inside the clinic as well. She collapsed and had a seizure.
These are just some of the stories from Behind the Emerald Curtain. Watch it, share it, and help Pacific Rivers in its campaign to reform the Oregon Forest Practices Act -- the law that allows these activities on private timberlands.

- “Whatever you do to injure the headwaters of a fishery will not heal on the way down.” - “Why not do it right?”
Reality is a bitter pill that the State Board of Forestry and Oregon's Governing bodies have shoved down our throats. The fact is the timber industry has won and we the every day Joe are screwed.
I am a conservationist and botanist. Like most documentaries, this falls victim to over dramatization and hyperbole. I am in and around clearcuts all the time, as well as national forests and wilderness areas and there is no shortage of natural areas and trees in Oregon, nor will there ever be thanks to our "outdated" laws. The notion that they are poisoning our water is beyond ridiculous. If that were your primary concern, you should be targeting all of the agriculture land in the valley, not the hills. Logging companies are using a small fraction of the pesticides used in Oregon agriculture as a whole.
You are full of crap! 98% of the old growth is GONE! YOu are sucking up to the man!
Frank Moore, THANK YOU.......
Steelhead is not a salmon :/ it's an andramodous sea run form of rainbow trout...
DoubleJGamer95 who said it was a salmon?
Salmonidae is the scientific name of a family of fish including trout.
Trout are a salmonoid, theyre part of the salmon family...
When he said that they’re a type of salmon it turned me off the whole video
A steel is a breed of trout. Same as a bow just one hits the sea and one dont but they are in the same family as salmon
Thank you for your never ending pursuit of fixing the nightmares our forefathers made for us. Keep fighting the good. 🐟
How has this documentary not been viewed a million times??
most people don't want reality, they want escape..
Fight on mighty Steel & fish on Frank. Thank you for everything you’ve done for this remarkable fish & splendor of nature we hold here in The PNW. 🐟

Forests last thousands of years - until they are owned by corporate profiteers.
Boo hoo hoo, look at all these missing trees... in a picture that is still 90% covered in trees Q_Q
Seems like you are sure missing the difference between mature forests and plantations.
