Geschiedenis
• Author is ecologist working collaboratively with First Nations on integration of traditional knowledge with western science • Born and raised in Mexico City and has worked as a marine scientist in Coastal BC, Canada for over 20 years • Seeks to find ways of relating to the natural world and natural resources that help create a better future • Through his work in marine conservation, he has discovered a path where science and indigenous knowledge meet and work together to create better outcomes for everyone • Written to be culturally inclusive and relevant to both native and settler culture • Argues that the stories we tell about these changes will affect our future outcomes • At this pivotal moment in history, the most important story we can be telling ourselves is that humans are not inherently destructive. • We can recognize that indigenous cultures have lived and thrived for millennia with large populations within a finite resource base and large populations of indigenous cultures have lived sustainably for millennia • By integrating this traditional knowledge into modern scientific knowledge, a synergistic approach to resource management can be achieved • Similar to Sacred Ecology • by Fikret Berkes, this book makes an important contribution to the work of reconciliation. It differs in that it has a personal approach and experimental perspective. • Takes off where Braiding Sweetgrass • by Robin Wall Kimmerer stopped by giving real life examples where Indigenous people are reclaiming control over their resources. • Uses real life examples to argue that when Indigenous people are legitimate partners in resource management, it is more likely to ensure the sustainability of those resources • Drawing from the author's personal experience as an ecologist, these stories encourage the reader to tell a new story about our future that is optimistic and hopeful
Audience: Readers of Braiding Sweetgrass, people interested in natural conservation, climate change and ecology, Native American and Indigenous studies, students of climatology, archeology, anthropology, social science, resource management and ecology
