A Chance to Speak, A Chance to Listen

A Chance to Speak, a Chance to Listen (English) from LifeMosaic on Vimeo.

Indigenous peoples contribute very little to the underlying causes of climate change. Instead they have a lot to offer humanity at this time, because of their sustainable lifestyles, their traditional knowledge, and their deep connection to the forests and the earth. Many have witnessed first hand the unsustainable development of largescale developments destroying their ancestral lands. Many are now being severely impacted by erratic weather, flooding and drought.
In this short film, indigenous peoples from a variety of tribal and indigenous groups across Indonesia and the Philippines offer their messages to policy makers at the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen (COP 15) in December 2009.
