17、dea began to form which combined her love of baking with a new use for the box ignored by almost everyone. Holly got permission from the community council to use the call box. “Nobody told us it wouldnt work, but we did get a few locals who thought people would just help themselves to cakes without

18、paying.” These concerns proved to be wholly unfounded. The honesty box, which is located next to the bread, cookies, lemon drizzle cakes, jams, eggs and candles, has always been used correctly by customers, claims Holly, with the box remaining entirely unstaffed. “Its a surprisingly busy road for tr

19、affic in the summer,” Holly remarks, “and we do get quite a few notes that people leave for us saying how much they like the idea.” Only open during the summer months, Holly has turned the box into layers of shelves for her cakes and other local produce. Able to make close to 100 a day in peak summe

20、r months, she also runs regular charity bakes in the community. “Im not sure the honesty box approach would work in a more urban area,” she tells me. “but for where we live its surprisingly easy to make something like this happen. Its really important to put in the work on social media and to keep y

21、our self-belief in the idea.” Holly is able to judge which cakes most tickle the taste of passing travellers with a sweet tooth. “The brownies are the most popular, always.” she tells me, “I do like expanding the range. The only thing is that I cant get them to rise at the moment! Maybe next summer

Officials say record-high temperatures last year killed most salmon in the 3,200-kilometer river before the fish w

25、ere able to reproduce. The losses led Alaska to stop their salmon harvests in 2021 to make sure that enough fish survived to reproduce for another year. The poor salmon harvests caused major financial losses to private fishing companies in the area. The die-offs also hurt native communities, which t

26、raditionally store the fish as a year-round food supply. Last month, the U.S. Department of Commerce declared a disaster for Yukon River fishing for 2020 and 2021, making aid money available. Alaska has sent emergency fish shipments to areas affected by the salmon shortages. Scientists have mostly b

27、lamed the problems on a series of heat waves in the Bering Sea and North Pacific Ocean from 2014 to 2019. The warm ocean waters affected salmons living in the sea before they returned to lay eggs. Climate change may also be affecting what the salmon are eating. Fishing experts say young salmon are l

28、ikely filling up on nutrient-poor food because warmer waters drive away healthier organisms (有機(jī)物) they normally feed on. “In my opinion, the salmon are starving with climate change,” said Brooke Woods in the Yukon River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission. The effects of climate change on freshwater enviro

29、nments have also been studied. Vanessa von Biela is a biologist who looked at the rivers, streams and lakes where salmon live. Her team found that Chinook salmon show heat stress at temperatures above 18C. They start dying above 20C. In 2019, temperatures on the Alaskan side were above 18C for 44 st

30、raight days, a recent study found. The effects of warming waters can be reduced by climate-driven glacier (冰川) runoff, which brings cooler water into rivers and streams. But scientists still expect salmon to begin slowly moving to new areas within Alaska. “Salmon will find a way,” said Biela. “but i
