To tackle a problem as large as climate change, we need both science and Indigenous wisdom, says environmental activist Hindou Oumarou Ibrahim. In this engaging talk, she shares how her nomadic community in Chad is working closely with scientists to restore endangered ecosystems -- and offers lessons on how to create more resilient communities.

When she spoke about the insects bringing in their eggs and things before it rains made me giggle. My mom and great aunt taught me and me siblings the same thing. And when we can't trust the weatherman we call each other and discuss nature.

Great Talk. The knowledge of Indeginous Peoples is crucial in our understanding of the environment and how best to preserve it. I mean, they have been there and seen what's supposed to be there;so they will be the first to know when something is wrong. Also, I like her call to integrate more Indeginous Customs into our lives. As the circular means of production in Indeginous Communities, compared to the modern linear means, which has caused the climate catastrophe we are now facing.

Given that long term weather prediction is completely unreliable, with models that routinely fail to predict anything of value, it would not add to the accuracy of predictions to include untested assertions arising from indigenous knowledge. Such assertions need also to be held to a high standard of scrutiny before they should be given any credence.

It is great to know where all the local plants, medicinal herbs and water sources are for survival as you travel from place to place. It is also wonderful to know what to look for to predict when weather will soon change. What it doesn't tell you, is the why. Why are things changing ? Science tells you the why and how. The knowledge she speaks of informs people about today and that is a great gift. The trends in plant growth can inform people about what to possibly expect next season, but it doesn't inform about the why. Why are these plants not growing well this season ? And when you can't answer the why, you move on to another place that has better fruits, better grains. You don't stay and try to fix the cause of why the plants aren't growing as well. Science can answer the why and provide a way to fix things so that next years harvest is better. As a nomadic tribe, you don't stay and farm the land. You move to where the crops are better. Staying and farming will help you understand the why.

one of the most important things we can learn from indigenous communities right now is sustainable farming scientific development must be permanently married with ecological concerns if we are ever going to survive on this planet - an ecologically destructive innovation is not an innovation what does it matter if we can feed a billion people with our factory farms if it leaves the land barren and unusable

Biggest problem is people not willing to give up eating meat their every meal. If people consumed less meat factory farms could easily be replaced with animals being grown on pastures (a bit more humane), this would in turn drastically reduce CO2 production. It is possible to go 100% without meat consumption but people are suffering from malnutrition as it is because they don't know how to feed their bodies properly. It's a bit pointless to write about it here though as people who need to change the most are also least concerned with this stuff and most of them don't even believe in global warming, let alone watch videos on how to preserve the planet.

Perfect example pls listen to Vandana shiva DR from India who goes at length to show how Monsanto has robbed all the Indian farmers of their daily wages and livelihood! She goes to explain the the women in Himalayan region have saved the planet little but it’s not going to last because at the end it’s the corrupt corporations ruling the world !!!

"Indigenous knowledge" meets science. No. There is only "science." Something is either objectively true and supported by evidence or it is not. Science and truth aren't regional or cultural. E=MC² is true whether you are in Africa or Alpha Centauri. Calling something "traditional" or "indigenous" knowledge plays on our emotions and has the dubious possibility of leading otherwise honest and rational people to embrace psuedoscience and nonsense rather than risk offending someone elses cultures and traditions. Sometimes cultures embrace bad ideas and we have to be honest enough to admit that to ourselves. Truth above all else.

You completely misunderstand and strawman the concept of indigenous knowledge. The idea that peolpe living off the land for generations dont have anything useful to say is absurd.

You need to think critically about the knowledge that these people have she may be talking about the weather now but you have to look at other things such as medicine these people will know medicines that will be effective where new chemical made medications won’t and looking at this the amount of runoff and pollution caused by the major pharmaceutical companies using this knowledge can allow for alternatives and as a person on many medications and as a biologist who’s dissertation is on heavy metal tolerance in plants ( this metal can come from pollutant run off mines and from rain like how acid rain occurs) we have used in this local knowledge which aided in the experimental design allowing for determination of new growth sites natural sites and older or ancient sites. This knowledge is invaluable and although not used for climate change is allowing us to better understand how plants across the developed and developing world will adapt. The knowledge she is also talking about is more intrinsic to their way of life and rainfall changes are becoming harder to predict her people don’t use the same method so can predict changes that science won’t catch. At the university I attend the ocean sciences school bring in these old timer sailors who aided their design of of some of their equipment but also to impart their knowledge to the young scientists on reading and understanding the environment in a way without fancy equipment or even binoculars, this actually has also lead to a study on certain animal behaviour within the ocean and their reactions to their environment. So yes she may not have said this is what we did and how our knowledge helped with climate change but you need to look at the wider implications and context saying that she didn’t make the point isn’t what talks like this are for they are to inspire thought and cooperation cons change not to make literal statements.
