Episode Description
Indigenous communities are among the first to face the direct consequences of global warming and the physical effects of the climate-driven extreme weather – such as deforestation, wildfires, flooding, and loss of biodiversity – due to their dependence upon and close relationship with the environment and its resources. We know engagement with Indigenous groups should be at the core of our journey to net-zero. Host Bonnie D. Graham speaks with Deloitte's Jason Rasevych, who is recognized as one of Canada’s top economic developers, having secured more than $250 million for capital projects, legacy infrastructure, and business expansion with Indigenous groups. Jason will discuss ways to provide Indigenous peoples with ownership and decision-making power while supporting their inherent responsibilities as custodians of the land. Tune in for Zero-In, presented by Deloitte Canada.
