Climate change to indigenous people is more than saving lives. It is essential. The nature works as part of them. They have to protect the environment because they will be more affected than any other inhabitants on the planet. Some people that do not have the same culture also try to be in favor of nature and fight against climate change. Due to connection of the indigenous with the nature, they know well about environment, climate change and the impact of the anthropic principle. Notwithstanding, their voices are not heard. In addition, this is extremely important and we are the ones who can make the difference in our own communities as well.

Being in touch with nature is a simple lifestyle that the indigenous people have. It is important to remind that they do not contribute for carbon emissions. The way that they cultivate and grow their foods in a sustainable way, do not contribute to global warming. The style that they live is a sustainable one, so they do not ''kill'' the forest.

I agree that the indigenous people do not contribute for the climate change. They do not produce carbon like the majority of the population in the world. Therefore, I disagree that they are responsible for the climate change.
