Tribal people… live in complete harmony with nature
According to data and statistics from the COP28 conference, indigenous peoples make up less than 5% of the world’s population, but they protect 80% of global biodiversity.
Brazil’s Minister of Indigenous Peoples, Sonia Guajara, emphasized the importance of the role of indigenous peoples in combating climate change while participating in the global conference that ends tomorrow at Expo City in Dubai: “We saw a big event. In a positive step globally with the ratification of the Paris Climate Agreement concluded in 2015, the traditional knowledge of indigenous peoples and local communities has been recognized as reliable scientific evidence.
The Brazilian minister continued, “This recognition is a tribute to the way of life of indigenous peoples, which is based on living in complete respect and harmony with nature, including the preservation of water, trees, animals and the richness of the land. , our indigenous culture is naturally connected to everything that exists in nature.”
Kwajajara emphasized her commitment to spreading awareness about the importance of indigenous peoples, the “National Coalition of Indigenous Ancestral Warriors” established in the past three years, which includes indigenous women and is the largest group of indigenous women participating in history. Conferences of Parties.
Studies indicate that rates of deforestation in tribal-controlled lands are two to three times lower than in other protected areas.
The lands of indigenous peoples and local communities account for at least 24% of the total carbon stored above ground in tropical forests worldwide, playing an important role in providing suitable conditions to meet climate challenges.
To achieve this, the COP28 leadership took the initiative to establish a dialogue with indigenous peoples as part of the solution to the climate crisis.

Emirates Nuclear Company has launched a roadmap to reduce the carbon footprint of its Barakah plants.
Emirates Nuclear Corporation launched a roadmap to reduce the carbon footprint of all operations, whether at the corporation’s facilities or the locations of Barakah nuclear plants, and began developing plans for this initiative. The US Department of Energy’s “Idaho National Laboratory” is one of the largest and most scientific research institutions in the world.
This is in line with the UAE’s strategic initiative to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 and the “Nuclear Energy for Climate Neutrality” initiative launched by the Corporation and the International Atomic Energy Agency.
The roadmap, launched during the “Nuclear Energy for Climate Neutrality” summit on the sidelines of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations COP28 Framework Convention on Climate Change, will include setting the path for the implementation of the Emirates Nuclear Corporation. Reduce its carbon footprint and use advanced technology to achieve climate neutrality for all its operations. And the expertise of the American Idaho Laboratory Group, particularly the Barakah nuclear power plants developed by the corporation in Abu Dhabi, is planned to provide 25% of this. Once the UAE’s electricity requirements are fully operational, it will significantly reduce the carbon footprint of the country’s energy sector, enabling sectors and businesses to be part of a carbon-free economy by producing the environmentally friendly electricity required to obtain clean energy certificates. In Abu Dhabi.
The roadmap also includes developing ways to reduce the carbon footprint of various activities at the Baraka plant site, such as transportation, energy storage facilities and carbon capture. Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation is exploring opportunities to expand nuclear power projects within and outside the UAE. In addition to advanced nuclear technologies including mini-modular reactors and hydrogen production using nuclear energy.
The Foundation’s focus includes international cooperation to contribute to strengthening the world’s journey towards climate neutrality, reducing the carbon footprint of the transport and heavy industry sectors, in addition to converting coal plants to nuclear power plants.
The roadmap for reducing the company’s carbon footprint includes new technologies, funding and incentives, communication with partners, awareness campaigns, governance, policies and regulations, research, development and innovation, local and international partnerships and ecosystem. , and developing human skills.
