Abstract
While billions of us dollars are being spent the world over on treating wastewater, natural filter feeders are dying a silent, unnoticed death in oceans. Oyster reefs, as these natural filters are called, were once a dominant feature in many estuaries. As per the first global assessment of oyster reefs, 85 percent have been lost over the past 130 years, making oyster reefs the most severely impacted marine habitat on the planet.
