On this episode of Demand Utopia: A Solarpunk Podcast from Solarpunk Magazine, host Justine Norton-Kertson continues talking about fire season with a consideration of Indigenous land stewardship. How we can build a better relationship with fire and the land through Indigenous land stewardship practices while respecting sovereignty rather than continuing our settler-colonial history of Indigenous cultural appropriation and exploitation.
