"What Indigenous people know about their natural environments far surpasses what Western scientists know and is uniquely expressed in their languages. Most of the world’s plant species, for instance, have not yet been taxonomized within a Western scientific framework. But you talk to local people, and they tend to know all the plants and animals in their environment." https://knowablemagazine.org/content/article/society/2024/indigenous-languages-environmental-knowledge-save-ecosystems?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=originals
