Indigenous peoples rush to stop ‘false #climate solutions’ such as carbon markets. Carbon markets are a smokescreen — “a loophole — [that keeps] #FossilFuel polluters from agreeing to phase out carbon.” Tom Goldtooth Indigenous Environmental Network

🌿 Indigenous leaders are speaking out against false climate solutions like carbon markets. At the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, Tom Goldtooth and the Indigenous Environmental Network called for a long overdue switch-up. 🌍

🛑 Carbon markets are not only ineffective in mitigating climate

IEN Climate Geoengineering Organizer, Panganga Pungowiyi reminds us that relationships are integral to true, sustainable climate solutions.
