Indigenous resistance has cut U.S. and Canada's annual emissions

A new study shows indigenous resistance cut emissions by at least 25%.


“From an Indigenous perspective, when we are confronting the climate crisis we are inherently confronting the systems of colonization and white supremacy as well,” said Dallas Goldtooth of Indigenous Environmental Network. “In order to do that, you have to reevaluate how you relate to the world around you and define what your obligations are to the world around you. It’s more than just stopping fracking development and pipelines and it’s more than just developing clean energy, it’s about actually fundamentally changing how we see the world itself.”
