Shellshocked: Saving Oysters to Save Ourselves

The Massachusetts Oyster Project will be presenting Shellshocked: Saving Oysters to Save Ourselves. The film follows efforts to prevent the extinction of wild oyster reefs, which keep our oceans healthy by filtering water and engineering ecosystems. Today wild oyster reefs have been declared 'the most severely impacted marine habitat on Earth' and no longer play a role in their ecosystems. Now scientists, government officials, artists and environmentalists are fighting to bring oysters back.
