💨 Abstract

The trade war between the U.S. and China has severely impacted the geoduck industry in Washington state. Geoducks, the world's largest burrowing clams, are a delicacy in China, with Washington exporting 90% of its harvest there. However, recent tariffs have halted the industry, leaving divers and exporters without work and revenue. Divers like Joshua George, who have been harvesting geoducks for decades, are uncertain about their future.
