Mothers Out Front on Need for Indigenous Voices in Climate Plan

Indigenous communities are on the front lines of the fight for climate action and have a unique historical relationship to the land with an understanding of best practices for stewardship. Their voices are critical to ensuring that New York meets the climate goals set out in the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act. Alÿcia Bacon, NY Organizer for Mothers Out Front, discusses how to lift up Indigenous voices in the state climate plan process. With Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.
