> Protect indigenous people to help fight climate change, says UN rapporteur <

I tend to take anything a rapporteur says very seriously. Rapporteurs usually know what they’re talking about. By the way, what’s a rapporteur? Is it anything like a masseuse?

“according to the UN special rapporteur Victoria Tauli-Corpuz.”

So she’s a member of that “famous” Corpuz family. Is it me, or do the strange people all gravitate to the UN? And I guess a “rapporteur” is some sort of a “reporter” in plain English. We so need to be done with this worthless organization.

From her Wiki:

“Victoria Tauli-Corpuz is an indigenous leader from the Kankanaey Igorot people of the Cordillera Region in the Philippines. Is a social development consultant, indigenous activist, civic leader, human rights expert, public servant, and an advocate of women’s rights in the Philippines.”

Climate change is not man-made. Insanity.

we need to shift our paradigm of what constitutes wealth or prosperity because too many people see happiness only in terms of material goods and achievements

And yet... this indigenous leader chose to leave the perfect utopia of "indigenous-nous" for... lemme guess, material goods and achievements?
