“When you take a step back and look at the work that Indigenous peoples have put in over the years and decades, it really goes to show that we collectively are making a tremendous impact for the benefit of this planet,” Goldtooth told Grist.

Au-delà des chiffres, il y a ce constat à la lecture du rapport (PDF, 4 Mo, cache) que (seule ?) la lutte fonctionne. Merci aux personnes qui sont cette lutte, qui incarnent la résistance dont nous avons besoin pour survivre.

Imaginez un peu si la grande démission se transformait en grande action collective… on pourrait appeler ça le Grand Matin pour changer un peu.
