"The fish tube is just the first in a long line of attempts to solve the basic question of how humans can help stabilize the natural rhythms of the environment — specifically, fish migration. The question of what to do about fish migration wouldn’t really exist were it not for man-made dams. Dams physically block the paths fish take to their annual spawning grounds; they also turn running water into still water, which, to put it bluntly, confuses the hell out of fish...And on top of all that, the dams basically wreck river habitats by preventing species from organically interacting with each other — what ecologists call 'aquatic connectivity.'"
