Indigenous Peoples, Climate Chaos, and Carbon Colonialism [Hybrid]

DESCRIPTION

Sponsored by the NLG Environmental Justice Committee.

The Carbon Markets are a new form of colonialism creating significant threats to Indigenous Peoples globally and to Indian Tribes in the US specifically. The whole premise of carbon markets is contrary to traditional Indigenous Knowledge, and the agreements on Indian lands lock it up for decades and further erode tribal sovereignty by waiving sovereign immunity and limit tribal jurisdictional authority.
