People who need to be prepared for every student by some careful. Not to see place 2. Hello my name is both charles i am 19 years old and i am from a small village called new talk when i go to a school that has 137 student im writing about a village trying to move because of Climate Change the talk is small place totos above 350 people and we are trying to move to a place called most im humbled 200 miles of new tough. I have been in need talk strictly all my life and it has always been the same movie here we lose a number of feet of flanders. Sure what is not the same it shares the extent of the eurozone because the weather isnt the same each year sometimes it curb ritual for us but most of time it does. Rid into doesnt do last 150 feet of land from water washing line and the nurse on to the waters about 100 yards we are going to have a disaster if we dont move. We need to act as soon as possible before the water just force or it will lead us like cookie monster eating cookies. All the land just falls down and. Cannot pick. I strongly believe we can do this but we will need to help this place is very important to us because how much hunting we do how much we move around a whole lot but the hardest thing we have to 1st is having no Running Water or earth or surely we hunted buckets was which is a 5 gallon bucket for him and wished it we dont get down into the water when it is for. According to the government its about 230000000. 00 Climate Change that like playing chess in a test checkmate us. Please we need to make a move because we have the possible to might lose this battle. Well just want to sit at a table noses just like everyone else and just have a cup of tea. And laughing away with our cars. Life is too short to see a swim meet to the nearest village thats about 40 miles and the water is to comb. You know their early contacts with the west stairs were mainly for trade with that trade of course and government and so with the government came either a post office or school so wherever they placed those structures where these communities were told that you have to now live so regardless if your main camp which is probably your richer camp is the most prominent structure you have you cant go back there after you have to relocate your family here. They were not a one location people they were migratory and. And the way they were able to keep them there was 2 and sip their children off to boarding school if they didnt live near the school and so the challenge began. In that initial contact. I think were part of america 1st for murder for crime. Worse or. You know when you had to go over the layers of. What started cox problem there was a bar. The 1950s i was bringing in the school so i used to. Work. The parts. Have nots go. Through the wrong side of her. On this. Side. Of your. Hard to understand what psychological impacts where and they said you no longer can to get through that and if you dont come here or taking your children so i would think that. And i know they talk about generational trauma and when you have been doing this for 15000 years and then somebody puts a stop on it and the consequences are what we have to. Join me everything. Im sure. Ill see you then. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race in the spear in Dramatic Development only. Exist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical. To sit down and talk. Crazy. He just. May be shocked at hearing. I have been waiting for the moment of complete. Collapse i never knew it would happen this. New york alone has become a place of dozens and dozens of demonstrations were driving through one of new yorks. Worst homicide shooting rate in the city. Going. To some of the citys. Before going to the 2nd grade so were not even the. Police let them know. Its a mass was going on behind those walls the richest country most powerful voice. Has the worst response theres. Nothing about the level of going to be so great. Were going to have maybe and. Maybe. This truly has become a symbol of her in new york. And ask for. Asked 70 and seeing and im interested for the facts. But the commission soon. Branching shifts. To time disk in the. Asian community no longer. Leach it mom. I know you are so set on not going much to me mama just back. That girl for us this down now what is happening into the permafrost you did not read it so ill tell you nobody did it because its melting it causes the rouge so how many people have gone and walked along the edge of the river. Lots of people you wish mobile walk to be happy because thats where you guys dont your honey but its a you know but if you do walk along there why whats happening to all of the shoreline it toward disappearing into my class last semester in the fall we went out there and we measured how much the reversion was how much you think we lost last year he and we lost about 35 feet sometimes i was close you were close 35 feet of ground in just about 3 months while we were measuring. It is fast and that means the river is 35 feet closer to town then let. It was the year or so you guys think the rivers doing. Is one thing to say the river is going to move you but this prompted a whole whole bunch of things this village is completely divided and theres just no way around you know to travel councils families dont talk to each other just all kinds of issues that have. Prompted by this river here moving in and rooting their communities. The snow looks are from the outside its far from the community theyre not originally from new to. Sit through troubled ministers actually 1st cousins tom and eleanor 1st because its a tradition versus you know the new prostitution or majority way of thinking so you have that tremendous divide different philosophies together and stanley represents one side and tom represents the other so my name is strongly com im the tribal minister for a new car christened comes originally so i like to be a tribal at nish. Board in your. School teaching new intake there was a election dispute. In october condit call. The new car traditional console. Somebody who works there. Said weve never had. It quite a while. And its an excellent piece you were being accused of not having a tonight years election when we moved in the wrong you had to look for all these words i knew it was coming up. And someone smarter words began following the money and realizing some of the moneys not accounted for while they actually suspended the elections so once they suspended the elections there was a there was a feeling that the community was being left out of the process yeah they were scheduled to leave in 2012. But through the division and the infighting and some of the you know bureaucratic issues the stalled as it stands now the federal government cannot. Contract with either group so what they did was they basically took the contract out of the. Its a shack when it comes down to some 3rd world shack its basically. A last resort for people who want to live in the. Wrong. Is created a lot of problems healthwise know weve been to the clinic several times in our Family Structure road strollers you know dysentery and Everything Else just kind of was rampant through the villages at certain times for. You want a full. 40. And it talks been moving for the last 10 years its a stalled move. Some frustration levels fairly high. Sometimes you wonder if theyre doing this on purpose. I mean really when you come down to it this could be a foreign totally foreign country ignored by any infrastructure all live in the United States never just sitting in this is home theres no Running Water whatsoever so. Its a very crowded. In the bush is really not for everybody. Because a lot of teachers call 12 years and they leave they dont never study. I guess is just a Culture Shock to. We came in 2000 some 2008. Year career since. Moving to village then. Everybody roots you could much see the water from my house to then. Could look out like we look out now dont you could see the water. Now. Its close we can see it always buzzing over land when it when he gets rough. Before lies. We can see land working away. Back home they have these here we have hurricanes. Roddy and help people move in do whatever you got to do is just sing like a. Just taking forever i mean you almost begin to go to school you know youre ready. And i guess thats just whats. Tears me up and said. Thank you no come on man these people these people are just like us theres no difference and these people and the people the law for you and. We all. Human and all its just a Little Village 3300 people would still be gotten out so i dont think its no big deal is a big deal some big deal is their lives leg. Length. League. Of. Legends. Being stood start at the same time please please most cars in sir there were planning to move to a new study this swing through the northeastern harper there. Are no more. Higher. Out there are students who get their masters or another through the country. Even though its United States i see a part of america. It might be americans or diggers or 3rd world countries and there is an addict here its. Kind of new turkeys thinking. Hotel or you could really see it. So how is might be too late. In half a town to be moved to the new set by now but the power struggle and money greed to too much money are too. Hard tyrone and putting their part. Of it is just as good of the earth even though its up over the early teens of. 2 different totals think theyre. Running literally. Beyond angry. Out of nowhere. Peers were around there. Were only 2 women. Who moved to them dazed and confused. My. Nothing to the top of the note we have yeah. But i. Like the pressure. To. Be. Good enough if somebody can get out to trigger to a degree and like to go back to you have some eye for me and with 2 or 3 bags this is for me this is for my sister this is for my brother to say you know what you said to cesar did you doing open just as well as he wants candy to go under the tree dependent on you.

New york alone has become a place where dozens and dozens of demonstrations were driving through brownsville one of new yorks neighborhoods that has the worst homicide shootings rate in the city. So you know. After all theyre about to get going. Oh my god this is the most of the scenes you know. Who i think were going to the 2nd grade so were going to go with the 1st wave. Of little money from you know some mass was going on behind those walls the richest country most powerful oil and yet it has the worst response theres theyre all countries that i dont. Worship ruin him loose and youre doing nothing about it the level of deaths are going to be so great. That dad i were going to have to bury that maybe and part. Maybe in potters. This truly has become a grim symbol of the current endemic in new york. Has changed Many American lives but pharmaceutical companies have a miraculous solution. Based drugs talk to people who are chronic pain and believe that their opioid prescription is working for them and the remedy be certain to. Price that they pay closer dependency and addiction to opiates to long term use that really isnt scientifically justified and ill study actually suggested that the long term effects might not just be absence of benefit but actually that they might be causing long term.
