What are common risks to businesses that don’t respect Indigenous and tribal peoples' rights? And how can companies better understand the impact of their footprint on Indigenous peoples?
To explore these topics, we have the pleasure of talking to Moira Birss and Kate Finn. Kate is the Executive Director of First Peoples Worldwide and Moira is the Climate and Finance Director of Amazon Watch, a nonprofit that works to protect the rainforest and advance the rights of Indigenous peoples in the Amazon Basin.
In our conversation, Moira and Kate will talk about accounting for Indigenous peoples’ human and land rights — and how it will enable businesses to understand their business and climate risks.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
