A Time for Heroes
Traditional knowledge is most similar to ecology of Western science, but it has added dimensions of being deeply integrated in Indigenous culture, language, spirituality, and philosophy. As such, it constitutes a wealth of ideas, understandings, and information developed during a healthy past, by healthy people who lived in a world whose health and sacred vitality was respected and preserved. This wisdom should be respected, and Indigenous cultures and elders should be collaborators now on the critical issues that affect the health of the planet and all peoples. Summer 2001, vol. 16, no. 3
