Social Impact
What is happening? California state agencies are starting a dialog with indigenous tribes on environmental issues. The parameters of this dialog are being called “authentic consultation.” Let’s learn. The White House released guidance on incorporating indigenous knowledge in decision making by federal agencies. California stopped verifying Indigenous knowledge with Western Science and began listening to indigenous knowledge of the lands.
Why is this important? How to balance stewardship of nature with growth. It’s a learning process.
