Assistant Professor Mike Dockry, a contributor to the 5th National Climate Assessment's Indigenous Peoples Chapter, speaks with Minnesota Daily reporters Emma Walytka and Alex Lassiter about the chapter's findings.
From the article: "The Fifth National Climate Assessment (NCA5), which was released on Nov. 14, found seeking advice from Indigenous communities can enhance solutions to climate change.
"The assessment, which had not received a major update since 2018, sparked further inspection on how cultural Indigenous practices could be useful in curbing climate change while addressing issues like access to alternate forms of energy and the future of the next generations."
