Hi! Great piece on the importance of nature and climate. I would like to have seen mention of Indigenous folks, though, and how important it is to return the land back to these communities. Indigenous communities make up only 6% of the global population, but inhabit 85% of areas proposed for biodiversity conservation worldwide. Initiatives like 30x30 *must* center Indigenous sovereignty and justice.
Thanks Aiyana! We really appreciate the feedback. Keep an eye out this Sunday, as we’re actually featuring this in the upcoming issue — how Native Americans are helping restore America’s prairie as part of the American Prairie Reserve, a new conservation effort more than twice the size of Yellowstone. We're also working to bring in Indigenous writers for future monthly topics so they can center the sovereignty and justice of their communities from their perspectives. Keep the feedback coming, we want to tell the stories that matter to our readers and your voice helps shape what you read in Hothouse. Thank you!
