an estimated 476 million Indigenous peoples dwell on lands that are home to 80 percent of the world’s biodiversity.
This seems important. This is a number not often talked about in aggregate, at least that I’ve seen. Recognizing my own dis-ease at feeling like I would have way underestimated that figure before reading.

@krewllobster worth pointing out that in many cases one of the reasons the biodiversity still exists in those places is because they’re mainly just Indigenous people living there.
