What are these communities trying to achieve?
Sustainability is something which can be incorporated into our daily lives and has been in different communities for thousands of years, in a variety of ways. If we, as human beings do not be proactive in our approach to be sustainable Mother Earth and her environment along with the life forces will not exist in the future.
When we consider Native Americans, Alaska Natives, and other Indigenous peoples, there is a long tradition of sustainable living with their communities. They understand the importance of preserving natural resources along with respecting the interdependency of all living things.
We have acted too late
Other communities such as the Native Americans, Alaska Natives, and other Indigenous peoples have been proactive in their plight of Mother Earth and her environment for a considerable period. As the research suggests, eco-communities have grown in popularity to get on board with saving our precious planet. Working together towards a more sustainable future will achieve so much if we just STOP, THINK AND ACT.
