After watching a documentary about shark finning, Marine Thomas was left distraught and feeling that she needed to take action. Thomas ended up leaving her career in luxury fashion to take up conservation work, which eventually led to her current role as Associate Director of Conservation at the Nature Conservancy Hong Kong. Now, Thomas can often be found wading through mud as she works to restore local maritime habitats and protect natural areas. In this episode of Listen to Her, Thomas talks about her oyster restoration work in Pak Nai, a wetland that sits on the coast of the northwestern New Territories. Thomas and the Post’s Regina de Luna discuss environmental conservation and the urgent need to save one of the world’s most endangered marine habitats.
