For years, members of the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe of White Mesa have voiced concerns about a nearby uranium mill polluting their water and air. During a recent spiritual walk from White Mesa to the mill, marchers demanded its closure. But the Canadian company that owns the mill has plans for expansion. Plus, water experts from across the West testified before Congress about drought conditions and the Colorado River basin. And, a new report aims to bring hunters and anglers into discussions about fighting climate change.
