Yesterday was an important day of action for indigenous peoples worldwide. Here's a wrap-up! http://www.theguardian.com/…/indigenous-activists-take-to-s…

Paris – An all-Indigenous flotilla of kayaks took to the waters of Paris today, followed by a press conference featuring Indigenous leaders from the Americas delivering strong messages: warnings of the worst consequences of climate change, and holistic solutions to protect Mother Earth. This event, proposed by the Kichwa community of the Sarayaku, served as a platform to reject false climate solutions, and to deliver three key documents designed as a means to address climate change.
