An interview with David Burger:
What are you passionate about and why?
My passion for preserving the environment of the northwest comes from my grandparents who were both professors at the University of Washington and naturalists that gave me the opportunity to spend summers at their cabin on Shaw Island in the San Juan Islands. These summer experiences started when I was one year old and really connected me to the natural environment and gave me an appreciation and respect for this area.
If there is one thing that people should get more involved in what
should it be?
People should get involved in their local communities and bring them together to make changes in their daily routines that can have a cumulative impact on the environment. Buy Salmon-Safe products!
How do you spend your time when you are not acting as a local change
maker?
I enjoy spending time with my wife and two beautiful daughters at our cabin on Shaw Island and playing music.
What is your favorite thing about living in Seattle?
Being close to family, friends and like minded people.
