We thought New York City was built on dreams – turns out it’s built on oysters! Who knew New York’s harbour is home to one of the world’s biggest oyster rewilding projects? Expedition diver, Andi Cross, joins Climate Curious to share how the Billion Oyster Project is restoring NYC’s waters with the ambition of creating a self-sustaining reef system. In conversation with Climate Curious co-host Ben Hurst, they get into how these filter feeders are the backbone to a healthy ecosystem by offering the perfect nature-based solution to help create a more resilient city. They also cover what it takes to become a professional diver that specialises in the most extreme diving conditions (spoiler: farmer strength). From concrete jungle to oyster reef, tune in to hear how it all starts with one simple action: getting on the water.
