They are replacing diesel with wind and solar, and starting businesses that hold long-term promise for both the environment and local economies.<\/p>\n<p>Four of the extraordinary women among the first group of 20 who were selected by the Pembina Institute and GLOBE Series to be profiled as part of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/womeninenergytransformation.philespace.com\/\"><em>Women in Energy Transformation<\/em><\/a>\u00a0project are Indigenous. Their stories show that Indigenous women bring a much-needed perspective to addressing climate issues: one that considers social impacts and incorporates the deep knowledge of environmental stewardship held by Indigenous communities.<\/p>\n<p>They are demanding that their voices be heard and that the prosperity of their people be prioritized as the world turns a page on fossil fuels.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pembina.org\/images\/blogs\/full\/2022-03-11-indigenous-women-climate-blog-photos-jordyn-web.png\" alt=\"Jordyn Burnouf\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" \/><\/p>\n<h1>Jordyn Burnouf: Economic opportunities must be brought to communities<\/h1>\n<p>Jordyn Burnouf is Advisor to the Vice President of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/metisnationsk.com\/\">M\u00e9tis Nation of Saskatchewan<\/a>\u00a0and a member of the Black Lake First Nation.\u00a0She was raised in the M\u00e9tis community of \u00cele-\u00e0-la-Crosse in a region of northern Saskatchewan where there is heavy resource extraction. That early experience influenced her desire to bring an Indigenous worldview to the energy sector.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Burnouf works with governments and non-profit organizations to create opportunities for Indigenous people in energy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Indigenous people and the Indigenous worldview need to be prioritized in decision-making processes, and in any plan to address a just transition for energy,\u201d says Burnouf, adding that she has witnessed environmental racism in the course of her work. She says it is time for that to change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere needs to be more opportunity for Indigenous people to have the skills training and support systems to execute some of these projects,\u201d says Burnouf. \u201cAnd we need the funds to be able to match what those projects could be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pembina.org\/images\/blogs\/full\/2022-03-11-indigenous-women-climate-blog-photos-melina-web.png\" alt=\"Melina Laboucan-Massimo\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" \/><\/p>\n<h1>Melina Laboucan-Massimo: We must understand the burden we are placing on current and future generations in the energy sector<\/h1>\n<p>Melina Laboucan-Massimo is the founder of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsacredearth.solar%2F&amp;data=04%7C01%7Csarahn%40pembina.org%7C357fe9d3ba164195a3b608da0304b0a0%7Cf5d444e9b5d64c8f89cc05e1f1e65ef9%7C0%7C1%7C637825615951700219%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C2000&amp;sdata=%2F2x6nM%2B8iGGCVt%2BLEPH9agEXobxWQl1WEXMI2TaU2j0%3D&amp;reserved=0\">Sacred Earth Solar<\/a>\u00a0as well as the co-founder and Senior Director of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indigenousclimateaction.com\/\">Indigenous Climate Action<\/a>.

Today, Sacred Earth Solar empowers Indigenous communities to implement renewable energy technologies.<\/p>\n<p>Laboucan-Massimo says the only way that humans can survive on this planet is to respect their sacred connection to Mother Earth. \u201cIt&#8217;s incredibly important to do the work for future generations, taking equity into account,\u201d she says. \u201cAll people have the right to breathe clean air and drink clean water.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As we move to renewables, Laboucan-Massimo says it is critical that the future energy system does not reproduce existing inequities, and that certain segments of society, namely Indigenous communities, should not be forced to carry the burden of shouldering negative impacts for all.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel like a lot of Northern and remote communities located in and around extractive industries see and experience (the harnessing of energy) in a much different way than the rest of Canada does,\u201d says Laboucan-Massimo.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pembina.org\/images\/blogs\/full\/2022-03-11-indigenous-women-climate-blog-photos-judith-web.png\" alt=\"Judith Sayers\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" \/><\/p>\n<h1>Cloy-e-iis Judith Sayers: The time for change is now<\/h1>\n<p>But, even as Indigenous women express caution about the transition\u2019s evolution, many are also anxious for change.<\/p>\n<p>Judith Sayers was Chief of the Hupacasath First Nation in 2001 when her community began development of a hydropower project on the China Creek in British Columbia.

I would like to see that being accelerated.

Crawford, who is of M\u00e9tis and Jamaican\u00a0descent, relied heavily on decolonial and Indigenized teachings when she laid down the principles that would guide her business.<\/p>\n<p>Today, she works with governments and other clients to help them see the energy industry through the lens of anti-racism and accountability for the prosperity of future generations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe physical consequences of environment and climate change cannot be removed from the social and political implications and causes,\u201d says Crawford. \u201cClimate justice means that climate action done on any of the globe\u2019s Indigenous lands must centre Indigenous peoples\u2019 knowledge systems and sovereignty.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Join the Pembina Institute and GLOBE Series on March 31st, 2022 for a session at GLOBE Forum focusing on the leadership and perspectives of Indigenous women on climate change and the energy transition in Canada.\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.globeseries.com\/the-women-in-energy-transformation-series\/\"><strong><em>Register today<\/em><\/strong><\/a><strong><em>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>This article was published by The Pembina Institute on March 15, 2022.
