"Although they comprise only 5% of the world’s population, Indigenous Peoples safeguard 80% of the planet’s biodiversity. Their sophisticated knowledge of the natural world means that where Indigenous Peoples have control of the land, forests and biodiversity flourish. Their sustainable land use fights climate change and builds resilience to natural disasters." - Amnesty International
We must change our perception of the natural world and support Indigenous peoples. Like them we must persist to preserve this knowledge as a vital tool to protect our environment and tackle climate change.
