They are almost always on the frontline of the climate- and ecological crisis, but they are also leading the resistance. We have to listen to the guardians of the land and value their traditional knowledge. The exploitation of nature, land and people needs to stop. 7/7

SVTs nya grepp verkar vara att helt enkelt hitta på saker jag sagt och gjort. Jag har självklart inte gett Dalai Lama ”en hemläxa”. Men det blir ju självklart fler klick när man skriver så istället för att jag tipsade tittarna om vad man bäst kan göra för att skapa förändring...

There is an activist camp at Riehpovuotna and many are resisting.
Though we must combat the climate crisis, this cannot be used as an excuse for so-called “green” colonialism with the same mindset that got us here in the first place. #iifalnussir #reddfjordene #savethefjords 3/3

Our emissions aren’t falling, they are rapidly rising. The climate crisis is still seen as an isolated “topic” and not as a symptom of a much larger sustainability crisis. 2/4
