Ever consider the thought that some "indigenous peoples" might find this kind of thing a condescending continuation of the "noble savage" myth?

Can we please not with the Noble Savage commentary @s_guilbeault, We have a lot of Indigenous people who also rely on resource industries for the betterment of their people.

You need to be far better than this when you speak of who we are. https://t.co/ZhtLCGRynI

No. Indigenous knowledge has nothing to teach us about how to solve the problems caused by a human population of 8 billion. The most it might say is don't breed so much that you create a population of 8 billion. Indigenous knowledge is only concerned with how to live in balance on the land with an extremely low population density with low and simple technologies.

And basic survival
