"The existential threat of climate change has become more evident than ever due to rising global temperatures, droughts, wildfires, as well as biodiversity loss. In examining the urgency of climate action, 'The Trouble with Wilderness,' an influential essay by environmental historian William Cronon, highlights the constructed nature of our perceptions of nature. Cronon's insights into the cultural and historical shaping of the concept of wilderness offer a lens through which to understand the evolving relationship between humanity and the environment.

The Green New Deal (GND) emerges as a transformative policy framework that not only addresses the immediate challenges of climate change but also confronts deep-rooted economic inequalities. By analysing the GND, this research proposal seeks to delve into the complexities of climate action. The MIND's potential lies not only in its environmental impact but also in its capacity to challenge and reshape economic structures that exacerbate social disparities.

Moreover, the thesis underscores the critical role of Indigenous leadership in shaping climate policies. 'The Trouble with Wilderness' serves as a backdrop, reminding us of the historical marginalisation of Indigenous perspectives in environmental discourse. By drawing attention to the importance of Indigenous leadership, the research aims to explore how the GND can be implemented in a way that respects and integrates traditional ecological knowledge, fostering a more sustainable and inclusive approach to climate policy.

In synthesising 'The Trouble with Wilderness' with the analysis of the GND, this research proposal aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of climate change mitigation. It seeks to unravel the interconnectedness of environmental, economic, and social challenges, offering insights into how transformative policies can address the multifaceted dimensions of the climate crisis."
