For generations, Indigenous communities have cared for the land, long before climate action became a global priority. In Bio4Climate’s The Work Keeps Going series, Madison Matthews interviews Michael Durglo, Climate Change Coordinator for the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes in Montana, about how Indigenous knowledge, whitebark pine restoration, wildfire adaptation, and youth education continue to strengthen community resilience despite uncertain funding. His work offers valuable lessons for all of us about the power of ecological stewardship and community-led climate solutions.
