Description

Native American tribes are learning how to adapt to the climate changes affecting their traditions. “When things are happening that change what grows where, what animals are surviving where, then the tribes are immediately affected because their access to their traditional foods, their ceremonies based on their relationship with the land, all of those things are affected by climate’s change.”
