Summary:
Björk, the Icelandic singer and activist, just released the single “Oral” with Rosalía, the Spanish artist, to support action against open-net salmon farming in Iceland and around the world.
Björk reached out to @nasfund and the @icelandicwildlifefund last summer to release a single to raise much-needed funds against the industry. Björk decided to collaborate with Rosalía, hoping to attract a Spanish audience and create awareness in Latin countries like Chile, where it is also a significant problem.
The artists are donating all income generated by this to the “Aegis” @aegiswatch non-profit organization.

INDEX
1. In the marine waters of the Northwest, these orca whales prey exclusively on fish—and not just any fish: salmon, and preferentially Chinook, the biggest salmon in the Pacific. In this, these orcas (sometimes called Southern Residents) have plenty in common with some of the other longtime native residents of this place: the Lummi Nation.
2. In the Lummi language, the local orcas are called Qwe ‘lhol mechen.
3. When the Lummi first came to this Douglas fir and cedar cloaked land and its glacially carved bays and inlets, the Southern Residents were here to greet them.
