Do we? I don't see it. Their lifestyle isn't sustainable with modern population levels, billions would die. Of course killing off billions of people would fix climate change problems, but people wouldn't say that is a good solution.

Their culture not only looks more sustainable, it proved itself sustainable over thousands of years without leading to the devastating growth & overpopulation of the 21st century, which is the primary reason that for so many (aboriginal & global) it will not end well.
