Indigenous stewardship linked to biodiversity

Indigenous stewardship linked to biodiversity Research confirms that human land use doesn’t have to be at nature’s expense. Indigenous villagers in the heavily forested state of Odisha, India. Humans have inhabited and influenced the majority of the Earth’s land for over 12,000 years, according to a new study – but not always to the detriment of the environment. The study, led by Erle Ellis from the University of Maryland in the US, combined global patterns of population and land use over the past 12,000 years with today’s biodiversity data. It reveals that nature as we know it has been shaped by humans for thousands of years, and that the land practices of traditional and Indigenous peoples have historically helped sustain biodiversity.

People have shaped Earth s ecology for at least 12,000 years, mostly sustainably

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ( PNAS) shows that land use by human societies has reshaped ecology across most of Earth s land for at least 12,000 years. The research team, from over ten institutions around the world, revealed that the main cause of the current biodiversity crisis is not human destruction of uninhabited wildlands, but rather the appropriation, colonization, and intensified use of lands previously managed sustainably. The new data overturn earlier reconstructions of global land use history, some of which indicated that most of Earth s land was uninhabited even as recently as 1500 CE. Further, this new PNAS study supports the argument that an essential way to end Earth s current biodiversity crisis is to empower the environmental stewardship of Indigenous peoples and local communities across the planet.

A new book celebrates the return of fish to the Penobscot - The Ellsworth American

A new book celebrates the return of fish to the Penobscot Reviewed by Carl Little Special to The Ellsworth American You know that children’s song “Three Little Fishies” with its chorus, “And they swam swam swam right over the dam”? Were it that easy. In Peter Taylor’s “From the Mountains to the Sea: The Historic Restoration of the Penobscot River (Islandport Press, softbound, 146 pages, $24.95), dams stand in the way of fish 12 sea-run species to be precise and their survival. The removal or circumvention of said structures lies at the heart of this inspiring account of river restoration. The book opens with a vision of a pre-dam waterway filled with fish, followed by Penobscot tribal elder Butch Phillips’ account of the history of how the river was used and abused over the centuries to the point where the Sacred Circle of Life was broken. Thanks to the Penobscot River Restoration Trust (PRRT), the rest of the story is, so to speak, all upriver.
