When DanielLombroso set out to investigate a poaching ring, it was with the strong expectation that big money was involved, he said. He found a different reality. “Most of the poachers we met were doing it because they had no other choice.”

In August, 2021, the filmmaker Daniel Lombroso went to the small Joseph P. Addabbo Memorial Bridge, in Queens, to investigate potential poachers who were wading into the murk.

“The whole project was a surprise. We went in with the pretty strong expectation that this was illegal poaching activity—that there was big money involved,” Lombroso explained. “Most of the poachers we met were doing it because they had no other choice. They were hungry. This was a cheaper food option than they’d get at the supermarket and, as a result of the pandemic, they were getting squeezed economically in a way they didn’t expect.

“I call the Hudson River down to Jamaica Bay a beautiful hazardous-waste site,” remarks David O. Carpenter in “Greywater.” Carpenter is a professor of environmental-health sciences atAlbany, where he directs the Institute for Health and the Environment. In 1972, the Clean Water Act amendments forced changes that improved the water quality in New York Harbor and its environs; before that, the area was something of an open sewer .

DanielLombroso Hey did your video 'Greywater' pass your fact checking process? As a marine ecologist, I can assure you that the tropical corals, sea fans, and sea turtle in this video do not exist in Jamaica Bay, New York.

DanielLombroso Hey DanielLombroso, heads up: the underwater stock footage used in this film shows a tropical coral reef. Perhaps you searched for 'Jamaica Bay' in a stock library, but what you licensed here is probably from the country Jamaica. Definitely no corals in NYC (would be cool tho).
