This representation of climate change is very similar to what I read about global warming and the greenhouse effect, but it is more complex, which is very good, I learned many things here, for example that the gas that contributes to the greenhouse effect is methane, which goes against the concept of many people on this subject.
Indigenous peoples have a very strong influence on non-indigenous peoples, including in relation to the decisions that must be taken, which is very good because indigenous people have more experience with the environment and know better how we should handle and care for our forests. I believe that we should all go back in time and see how much we have already harmed the planet as a form of awareness, a kind of shock so that we could see it and take action to improve, so we could join the Indians and learn from them to cultivate a more sustainable world. REDD raises awareness and proposes to industrialized countries that they stop deforestation so that trees absorb carbon dioxide and that the air is fresh and fresh again.
I agree with the representation of indigenous people because I know that they suffer a lot from climate change, because they depend on nature to live, and I know that they only want the good of our planet, we must join them to fight for the land.
It is a bit difficult to change and adapt to the way they live because it is a very different way from ours and we need people to stop the prejudice against the natives, after all they just want to help. We also need the cooperation of the government, because in many countries I think it will be difficult to adapt to this way of life. However, this is a great opportunity for us to change, so that we have support from those who understand the subject to keep a planet sustainable.

Good observation on identifying the complexity of the video.
Because the rights of indigenous people is recognized in REDD+, we can say they are influential. The declaration under REDD+ emphasizes Free, Prior, Inform, and Consent (FPIC), empowering indigenous people regarding how things that related to their welfare are addressed.
I am glad you sympathize with indigenous people. it's the right thing to do, therefore, we have to support them. In the meantime, what solutions do you think the video presents?
Good point! of course not everybody can live like the indigenous people. we ought to respect their lifestyle and vice versa, but in doing so, we should not cause damages that inevitably affect them. Governments will certainly be needed to push this through. Regardless, the perspective of indigenous people present us with opportunities to reflect on our ways of life.
