Description

Around here, when you think forest, you think towering Evergreen trees.

But an equally important forest sits within Puget Sound.

The state’s kelp forests play a critical role supporting fish and sea life in the Northwest, but they’ve been on the decline for the last 10 years.

Northwest News Network correspondent Tom Banse is here to talk about how the state is working to restore kelp and eelgrass along the coastline.
