Abstract:
The oyster has played an important role in the development of Eastern North Carolina and its people over the centuries. Nonprofits like the North Carolina Coastal Federation seek to undo the damage done to this vital bivalve by overharvesting and pollution, which have decreased its population by 50% since the nineteenth century.
