Rising temperatures aren’t just affecting the landscapes—it’s hurting the culture, sovereignty, health, economies, and lifeways of Indigenous peoples around the world. In order to protect our planet, the fight against climate change must be centered around Indigenous wisdom and traditional knowledge 🌱⁠ #IndigenousWisdom #Conservation #NativeHeritage #Indigenous #Native #ClimateChange #NativePhilanthropy #GlobalWarming #SaveThePlanet #ClimateAction #ThereIsNoPlanetB

Only Indigenous People can truly sustain biodiversity, including all plants, animals, warmth of the sun, telling of stories during the winter, clean water, the 4 directions, 4 seasons, 4 winds, and the 4 stages of life for All people. As a white man (Italian Family), I have learned much regarding the Wisdom and Knowledge of Indigenous Elders. The Biodiversity must be passed on from the Elders to the Youth. We are all one, support each other, listen and learn.

Recent studies suggest this claim actually is not true, but it's a great line. The more accurate narrative is that Indigenous peoples are indeed the most stalwart protectors of nature.
