Land, Language and Energy Efficiency: Indigenous Leadership with Jordyn Burnouf
Jordyn Burnouf, an Indigenous leader in clean energy, climate and community divides her time between many impactful pursuits including advising the Vice President of the Métis Nation-Saskatchewan, Co-Charing Student Energy’s SevenGen Indigenous Youth Energy Summit, starting a new podcast with the David Suzuki Foundation, advising Efficiency Canada and getting out onto the land as a guide with her family’s land-based camp.
Being connected to the land is an important influence for Jorydn’s work and she shares in this episode about what’s at risk when we lose our connection to land and it’s teachings, using getting out onto the land as an example:
“You need to get out on a canoe and you need to struggle for hours, and there's lessons in that. You need to get outside and be rained on, you know, you need to get outside and experience the earth for all her beauty and all of that struggle, because that's, that's what it's really about.”
Jordyn shares why Indigenous perspectives, knowledge and leadership matter for a just, clean energy transition and what she thinks the biggest opportunity for non-Indigenous people is to learn from Indigenous teachings on the topic of climate.
