Changements climatiques depuis des temps immémoriaux

The document advocates for the recognition of Indigenous stewardship and the expansion of Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs) and Guardian programs as essential tools for climate mitigation and biodiversity preservation in Canada.

• The Heiltsuk Nation possesses a continuous history of land occupation and climate adaptation dating back at least 14,000 years, as evidenced by carbon dating of a campfire site on Triquet Island.
• Indigenous Guardian programs, with over 70 existing across Canada, combine traditional ecological knowledge with Western scientific tools to monitor climate impacts such as permafrost melt, water salinity, and wildlife migration.
• Climate change and overfishing have caused ocean acidification and the appearance of 'blobs' (warm water masses), which have negatively impacted Dungeness crab populations by thinning their shells and slowing growth.
• Proposed Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCAs) in the boreal forest could permanently secure over 20 billion tonnes of carbon, which is roughly equivalent to 100 years of Canada's industrial greenhouse gas emissions.
