On #IndigenousPeoplesDay, the world celebrates our culture but what’s often unseen is the daily work to protect, revitalize, and honor in today's busy society.
Each day, Indigenous peoples step into our role as caretakers of the land, defending our waters, air, and territories.

On #ZeroEmissionsDay let's commit to real solutions: ending fossil fuels, not just offsetting them.
Real zero means cutting emissions at the source, not relying on carbon credits.
It's time for action, not more false solutions.

Today, we celebrate the Amazon Rainforest! Spanning 60% of Brazil’s land, the Amazon holds nearly a third of the world’s remaining tropical rainforests.
With its glory it still faces constant threats from industries and development, including deforestation for farming, timber, mining, and more.

No one is illegal on Turtle Island.
Colonial violence created borders, borders created the concept of “illegal people.” But Indigenous Peoples have always moved freely across these lands, guided by seasonal cycles, ancestral trade routes, and reciprocal relationships with Mother Earth.
