Yeah! Like there's good reasons for things like reservoirs and power generating dames but we need to be more conscious of placement and the environment. A lot of dams are... better not being there.
There was a recent removal in my state and it's pretty exciting hearing about it. There's a lot of nature restoration left to do, but apparently the salmon are already returning, so that's great news.

ETA: I dug up a recentish news article on how progress is going on restoring the area:

(By "dug up" I mostly just mean I set the time restriction to "last month" on my search and clocked the first promising summary.)
