For Cod and Country

After leading some of the top restaurants in Washington, DC, Barton Seaver now focuses his knowledge and experience to link seafood to broader socioeconomic, ecological, health, and cultural issues. Lauded as a leader in sustainability by Seafood Choices Alliance, Seaver was named a Fellow with the National Geographic Society and works with their Ocean Initiative program to demonstrate that the choices we make for dinner have a direct impact on the ocean and its fragile ecosystems. As a board member, Seaver works closely with Harvards Center for Health and the Global Environment to bring together Boston-area hospitals and health-care providers with healthier and more sustainable food service opportunities.
