THE GREAT MUSSEL DIE-OFF RISK OF MUSSEL EXTINCTION IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST THREATENS ECOLOGICAL STABILITY
LEO CLARK
NICK GATLIN Western fresh water mussel populations are dying. According to the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the conservation of invertebrate species, freshwater mussels are under threat from the construction of dams, pollution, the effects of climate change and other changes to their aquatic habitat. In an article titled “Extinction Risk of Western North American Freshwater Mussels,” coauthors Emilie Blevens and Sarina Jepsen stated that freshwater mussel species diversity “declined 35% across western watersheds by area, and among the most historically diverse watersheds, nearly half now support fewer species/clades.” In a blog post titled “The Merit of Mussels,” Blevens wrote that “for biologists and the many people who recognize the inherent value of biodiversity and rare species, the conservation of freshwater mussels and preservation of their habitat is easy to understand. These are animals that share our rivers and enrich our natural and cultural connections.” Blevens argued that conservation and habitat restoration efforts should prioritize reducing water pollution, investing in sanitation technologies and encouraging a reduction in industrial, agricultural and residential water use. The threat of mussel bed die-offs has increased in freshwater species like the western ridged mussel (Gonidea angulata), which has

heightened conservation concerns. In another post, “Working From the (River) Bottom Up to Conserve the Western Ridged Mussel,” Blevens wrote, “the stakes are high, and yet, there is still an opportunity to provide meaningful protection to the western ridged mussel.” Listing an animal under the Endangered Species Act has saved over 200 species of plants and animals from extinction, she stated—an outcome which will hopefully be shared by western ridged mussels. A Xerces Society publication, “Freshwater Mussels of the Pacific Northwest,” stated that mollusks are extremely “sensitive to changes in their environment” and act as a “canary in the coalmine” regarding the health of aquatic ecosystems. Because mollusks are slow-moving and highly responsive to alterations in their environment, they are a useful monitor of habitat conditions. Mussels can only live in “permanent bodies of water,” including lakes, ponds and rivers. They typically require a stable environment, as too much variability in factors such as water flow or dewatering can make it difficult for juvenile mollusks to establish themselves. Mussels play an important role in maintaining aquatic ecosystems. They filter materials in the water like algae and sediment, providing food for bottom-dwelling organisms and controlling nutrient levels. Mussels act similarly to garden earthworms, promoting species diversity and availability of organic matter. They provide benefits to humans as well—freshwater mussels filter pharmaceuticals and bacterial
populations like E. coli out of water bodies. Freshwater mussels are also a key food source for many predators, including river otters, raccoons, gulls and some fish. While healthy mussel populations can survive a standard amount of predation, fragmented or declining populations might be wiped out. “Freshwater mussels are one of the most endangered groups of animals on Earth,” according to Xerces Society. Out of almost 300 North American freshwater mussel species, 35 have gone extinct in the past century. The United States Endangered Species Act lists 25% of freshwater mussel species as endangered or threatened, and individual U.S. states list 75% of species as threatened, endangered or of special concern. The decline in freshwater mussel populations, the publication states, is the “result of continentwide degradation of aquatic ecosystems.” In the last 150 years, mussel populations, like all Western freshwater ecosystems, have been negatively impacted by trends like urbanization, logging and agriculture. More recently, climate change has exacerbated ecosystem instability, and it will continue to do so. A Xerces Society conservation booklet titled “Conserving the Gems of Our Waters” seeks to provide “best management practices for protecting native western freshwater mussels” during projects such as river restoration or construction. Efforts to restore habitats for salmon and other species in the Northwest have overshadowed the need
to preserve freshwater mussel populations, the publication stated. If mussels are not included in considerations for aquatic projects, the authors argue, these projects may fail to protect or even actively harm mussel populations, which “may take decades to recover, if at all.” The booklet gives several words of advice to potential aquatic project planners. They should be aware that mussel populations will remain in a work site all year, because they are largely immobile. If a mussel population is driven out or destroyed, it is unlikely that it will recover for decades—and as more mussel beds are lost, the chances of recovery decrease. According to the authors, it is best to institute freshwater mussel best management practices a year or more in advance of any project. Freshwater mussels have different habitat requirements than other species, and general protective measures may not adequately protect mussels from harm. The loss of freshwater mussels may entail a loss of living history. “Freshwater mussel beds, like old growth forests, can provide a lesson in persistence,” Blevens stated. “The mussel bed you or I observe in a river is likely the same bed, with perhaps even some of the same individuals, that our parents or grandparents would have encountered had they stood (or swam) from the same vantage point decades before. Yet, at the current rate of decline, our children, and their children, too, may not be able to experience western ridged mussels.”

REVIEW: A MODERN TAKE ON THE WINTER'S TALE PORTLAND SHAKESPEARE COMPANY ADAPTS A TIMELESS PLAY FOR MODERN AUDIENCES
KAT LEON Life is complicated. Love, trust, hope, sadness, grief, betrayal—emotions and how we experience them are seldom back and white. Like many humans throughout history, Shakespeare explored the depths of emotion through art and creative work. Several centuries later, we still perform Shakespeare’s works and use them to explore what it means to be human and all the complexities that come with experiencing our emotions. Portland Shakespeare Project is putting on one such performance at Portland Playhouse from July 7 to July 17: a modern verse adaptation of Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale. According to Michael Mendelson, the director of The Winter’s Tale, the performance was a long time coming. “This has been an extraordinary journey because this is a show Portland Shakes wanted to do two years ago, and we have not been able to do that until now,” he said. Like many things in the art world, this performance had to be put on hold as the world reeled from the COVID-19 pandemic. To make their adaptation more accessible to modern audiences, the art education organization Play On hired the playwright Tracy Young to translate this performance into modern verse. In fact, since 2015, Play On has worked on translating all 39 of Shakespeare’s works into modern verse. Tracy Young ’s adaptation attempts to provide a more accessible experience that modern viewers can relate to. “Tracy’s translation orchestrates the show really well…it makes the darker stuff even darker, and it makes the lighter stuff even lighter,” Mendelson said. “There are moments in the tragedy of this play that we’re laughing at the tragedy because it’s so absurd. Even if it’s not joy, even if it’s ironic laughter, crying laughter, laughing at oneself…we just have to unpack it.” Morgan Cox, the actor who plays a character
named Hermione in The Winter’s Tale, also said that the play captured a range of emotions. “I think that really speaks to the human experience,” Cox said. “I mean, I think too of times of grief that I’ve been in, and then all of a sudden there’ll be a moment where I find humor somehow, and that kind of allows you if you are able to let yourself kind of feel those things, process and heal and move through that.” Cox’s character Hermione in particular does not seem to be able to experience the comedy of what’s happening in the performance, which is what we as audience members experienced quite frequently. While Hermione stands falsely accused of infidelity, viewers in the audience were able to laugh at her husband Leontes, played by Philip Ray Guevara, who portrays a man on the verge of madness. Hermione, however, is not laughing, and neither is Leontes. The audience can see their situation from a bird’s-eye view that highlights the feeling of absurdity, when all the character feels and sees is their reality, pain and perceived betrayal. This bird’s-eye view allows viewers to see action and consequences, to empathize with the characters’ pain and to explore human complexities. “That’s why I think [Shakespeare’s plays] are relevant,” Mendelson said. “We have to take them out of context. Now we have to understand why they were written when they were written and what that meant. We have to look at them with new eyes and say, you know what, that doesn’t hold to me. This is the other thing that I see in it now because of what I see that’s going on in the world.” Despite Portland Shakespeare Company’s efforts to make Shakespeare’s modern verse adaptation more accessible, it’s still hard not to look back and see in some places how Shakespeare was, intentionally or not, limited to the privileged class. This is partly what many individuals find problematic about classical theater—its propensity to exclude

those who don’t fit into a very narrow box. As Carey Perloff, artistic director of the American Conservatory Theater, stated in an interview with National Endowment for the Arts, “[Classical theater] is considered elitist or narrow or white or male, which is sometimes true, but I would argue not as true as people think.” Despite its centuries-old roots, Shakespearean drama is changing. From the practice of modernizing the language to casting more women and people of color, the world of Shakespeare has become aware of its need to change instead of remaining rigid and static. “That [view] is changing and has changed and will continue to change,” Mendelson said. “So I think it’s important too. Look at what is reflected now and build on that instead of living with this past tape going on, right? Some people want to live in that past tape because it serves them in some way. But when you actually see what’s going on out there, if you take a picture of the Shakespeare companies and look at who’s on stage and who’s involved in the art, you see a very different picture, so it’s time to change that.” Another feature of the Portland Shakespeare Company’s attempt to shift the narrative of exclusiveness was their intention to cast women to play women and allow their strength and grace to guide the show, even in the moments when they did not have any lines at all. “One of the problems I see in the play is that in act five, Shakespeare does not give Perdita or Hermione many lines at all who should be talking a lot,” Mendelson said. “So it’s important to have people like Miriam and Morgan playing those roles because they’re really strong actresses and you can’t help but watch them and see how they’re going to behave.” Lucy Paschall, who plays the character Paulina, has a strong presence on the stage even when she is not talking. Audience members can easily be drawn to her character’s fiery and fiercely protective
personality, whether she is speaking or not. During the course of the play, I was repeatedly drawn to Miriam Schwartz. She portrayed the character Perdita with the utmost elegance and grace. I found myself eyeing her numerous expressions with wonder and amazement, as she took in her world with a silent strength. Whether she is speaking or not, Hermione’s portrayal by Morgan Cox in the play is an enthralling performance. It embodies love, grief, strength and grace in the face of struggle and heartbreak in an unparalleled way and leaves the audience breathless. Cox was able to tap into her inner strength for her performance. “I consider myself a strong woman in my day-to-day life, but you know, I’m also extremely vulnerable,” she said. “I feel very open to the world. And so in the show, like I kind of get to use that vulnerability, but then also really try to bring in the strength to the forefront, maybe even a little bit more than I do sometimes in my day-to-day.” In watching this play, I think almost everyone can find something to relate to and to take away from it—to see ourselves or others in our life through the lens of the theater can allow for healing and growth, something we are all in desperate need of during this time of uncertainty and unrest. “The theater teaches us how to be human, and we’ve been away from that for so long lately, so those who take the time and have the desire to come and sit with us for the duration of the play, I hope their hearts are opened a little bit more, I hope their minds are broadened a little bit more,” Mendelson said. “Maybe [they] come away with a little more grace and patience for one another and the notion that if something is unresolved in their life, that’s okay. It’s a journey, and journeys take as long as you’re gonna take, but you have to be willing to do the work…I think that that’s part of the journey of life.”

AIR CONDITIONING SAVES LIVES THE CLIMATE CRISIS IS HERE—AND AC IS NO LONGER JUST A LUXURY JESSE ROPERS Over the past few years, natural disasters caused by man-made climate change have wreaked havoc across the globe. Oregon has been included in the chaos with droughts, massive wildfires and wildly abnormal weather conditions battering the state. Last year, Portland was hit with a “heat dome” event that turned the city into a furnace and killed many people. This event was an alarm bell that showed how unprepared Multnomah County is for the climate crisis. Another thing also became apparent: air conditioning has, can and will save lives. Portland has historically had a temperate climate. Mild summers with highs in the 70s made air conditioning an optional luxury more than anything else. At the beginning of 2021, 79% of homes had air conditioning. This number may seem high, but is actually fairly low compared to Washington DC, Atlanta and New Orleans, which all have over 98% AC coverage. In short, Portland was unprepared for what was to come. On June 26, 2021, the heat dome began with temperatures in Portland hitting an all-time high of 108°F. Records continued to be broken over the following days until June 29, when temperatures reached an unheard-of 116°F. Eventually, the heat dissipated, leaving 72 deaths in Multnomah County and over 500 deaths across the Pacific Northwest and Western Canada. Most of these deaths were people who were low income, elderly and/or lived alone. A class divide was drawn in blood. Each one of these deaths would’ve been entirely preventable if air conditioning had been installed and available in all homes and cooling shelters for the houseless had been more abundant. Each death stands as a failure of a world ruined by capitalist greed and an apathetic government. Environmentally conscious readers may be resistant to the mass adoption of AC considering the troubling history of air conditioning. This is a valid concern. Early AC units emitted enormous quantities of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that nearly destroyed the ozone layer, while modern units produce hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), greenhouse gasses thousands of times more effective than CO2 or methane. 23% of energy in the United States goes towards AC, much of which has harmful origins. Both of these issues are serious, but they can be addressed. Alternatives to HFCs are already in the works, while a vast restructuring of power generation is already a necessity for fighting climate change as a whole. Solutions are available—the only thing standing in the way is our profit-first system that disincentivizes a move away from fossil fuels. Furthermore, AC was never the cause of climate devastation to begin with—the source is a system of capitalist exploitation by major corporations and governments. In the mess that they have made,

OPINION
the excuse of ACs being bad for the environment is not the answer to stopping it. Instead, ACs are needed to keep everyday people alive while new structures are formed that help mend the planet. Thankfully, a tiny legislative step was made earlier this year. In March 2022, Oregon’s State Senate passed Senate Bill 1536. SB 1536 removes previous limitations on renters using AC and other cooling devices in their tenements from May to September, as well as requiring new buildings made to have AC preinstalled. A $2 million grant was included as well for the Department of Human Services to create emergency shelters for clean air and cooling, and to start AC dispersals. This bill is a good step forward, but falls short of all that’s needed. Removing restrictions does nothing to help low income households who are unable to afford ACs in the first place. SB 1536 is another step that impacts new buildings instead of improving what is already here. Encouraging more gentrification is the last thing Oregon needs. Like most state-wide or national legislation, the measures are good but don’t go far enough fast enough for the times we live in. Thankfully, Portlanders have another point of good news for air conditioning. A voter-approved measure in 2018 created the Portland Clean Energy Fund (PCEF), an organization that OPB described as “a first-of-its-kind environmental justice program led by communities of color.” Part of the PCEF is the Heat Response Program, which aims to provide AC for those most in need, comprising low income BIPOC households, the elderly and people living with medical conditions that make the heat dangerous. The African American Alliance for Homeownership, one of seven community organizations funded by the Heat Response Program, installed its first AC unit last month. These seven organizations working with the PCEF plan to install 3,000 units by the end of the summer, with the end goal of 15,000 over the next five years. Local community organizations backed by the city are ideal for addressing the issues of those often ignored by the powerful, and can be a rare point of hope in a pessimistic world. Still, these efforts must be maintained and expanded so that when the next crisis hits no one dies. Air conditioning may not be perfect, but it can be the difference between life and death. In a changing world that has been ruined by greedy capitalists, the lives of the forgotten working class must come before profit. Changes to our infrastructure and societal structure are needed in order for humanity to survive. While these changes are made, lives must also be accounted for. Air conditioning—something that once seemed like a trivial luxury—is now a necessity in creating livable conditions moving forward.
