European colonialism, that is, the pillaging of lands and killing of indigenous people laid the foundation (and root causes) for the climate emergency we face today. #climatechange #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency
“Why has this crisis come about? Because for two centuries European colonists tore across the world, viewing nature and land as something inert to be conquered and consumed without limits and the Indigenous people as savages whose knowledge was worthless." theguardian.com/books/2022/j…
