DESCRIPTION:An evening in conversation with indigeous leaders from around the world. 
 Learn about indigenous peoples' efforts to resist REDD, a plan to allow 
 tropical forests to be turned into carbon credits. \n\nTuesday, October 
 16th\n6:30 – 9:30 PM\n \nTamalpais Room\nThe David Brower Center\n2150

 Action Network, International Development Exchange, Abya Yala Nexus, and

 emerging climate policies, Indigenous Peoples' territories are being 
 targeted as ‘carbon sinks’ to allow industry to continue polluting. New 
 policies threaten to undermine indigenous sovereignty, to privatize 
 forests, and to commodify the sacred.\n \nHear from Indigenous leaders 
 working to protect community land rights and promote equitable, 
 rights-based climate solutions that respect traditional knowledge and the 
 principles of environmental justice.\n \n6:30 – Light refreshments and 
 networking\n7:00 – Screening of A Darker Shade of Green: REDD Alert and
