The list is ongoing, a decimation of a critical ecosystem building block species the Oyster.
This Map From 1827 shows about 1/3 of San Francisco bay to be covered in Oysters.
This was before any bridges where built, but its clear that there was human involvement in the "oyster culture" of the day.
Seemingly humans had already degraded the Oyster Reef Ecology to some extent even at this early point in history.
Do Note the following Quotes from the chart of old.
"All this part Shallow and interspersed with beds of dead Oyster shells" and "Oyster Banks, dry at low water"
Consider the Oyster...
Obsessed with using Oysters as a biological microfilter, O.C.B. founder Joe Rueter, has worked in many ways to promote the filtration viability of Oysters for water quality restoration purposes. In 2002 as a collage intern at Wholefood's Aquaculture operation in Gloucester Massachusetts, he witnessed first hand the oysters ability to remove fluorocarbons, PCB's and feces when used as a companion species in salmon hatchery tanks. This ignited a passion for oysters as a way to remove many types of pollution not just from aquaculture operation's tanks but the entire global ocean as a whole. O.C.B. is the culmination of 18years of independent research.
