Boho Magazine -- Forestry Father
Todd Paglia, Executive Director for Forest Ethics, lives a life
full of family, activism, and the great outdoors. Paglia
found his
calling as an activist while working as a consumer
protection attorney
for Ralph Nader. “It was one of the best experiences in my
life,”
Paglia reminisces. “Working for Ralph was working for the
people.
It was worth it. I was rescued.” Paglia joined Forest
Ethics in
1999. Forest Ethics is a non-profit, environmental
organization
that seeks to protect nature, wildlife, and human welfare.
“My career
and my life came from Clayoquot,” Paglia confesses. He met
his wife,
Shannon Wright, while fighting to save the river valley of
Clayoquot
Sound. Today, biking to work as much as he can, Paglia
lives his
beliefs both in the office and out. “
