Julian Brave NoiseCat points out that practices like wildfire control and fishery management are returning toward ways that Indigenous people practiced them.
Here, in this edition of CNBC's series on addressing climate anxiety, Noisecat shares how indigenous people's framework for relating to the natural world is worth learning from and why it is important for responding to climate change in a sustained way.
