This Former Green Textile Maven Is Making Microwaved Seafood Sustainable

Duncan Berry has had an interesting life. This Oregon-raised entrepreneur started out as one of the youngest sea captains on the Oregon Coast at age 16. After two decades at sea, he went on to create several fashion apparel businesses (after a brief stint as an artisan metalsmith). One of his companies, Greensource, became one of the largest organic cotton textile companies in the world - selling to both Walmart and Target. After selling Greensource, Berry retired at 50, and returned to reside along his beloved Oregon coastline to work on a Governor's initiative preserving marine habitats.
