The Mighty Oysters of New York

The Mighty Oysters of New York

By Science & The City on May 31, 2012 From From the Academy   Leave a response  

Oysters—once more abundant in New York Harbor than anywhere else in the world—fell victim to over-harvesting and pollution. But today, thanks to the efforts of a few key groups—like the NY Harbor School—New York’s oysters are making a comeback. Hear moderator Andy Revkin lead a panel discussion on how these little bivalves can help restore New York Harbor to its former glory.

This podcast is sponsored by the Sackler Institute for Nutrition Science.

Philosophy Teacher
Mr. Durling taught me to think about the opposite argument, and others’ point of views and look for alternative perspectives, to question the consensus opinion and to test the logic of an argument. He was also fun.
