Listening to the Land

Listening to the Land
by Laura Goodall

Pauline Harris is a scientist of Rongomaiwahine and Ngāti Kahungunu descent. Like many scientists, she’s been listening to communities from around the world report on the effects of climate change. Indigenous people who live in really cold places like Alaska have already talked about unusual changes in their environment. Lakes are thawing out earlier than they used to. Mosquitoes are hatching earlier and growing faster.” These reports made Pauline wonder whether Māori communities might be aware of similar changes in Aotearoa. Could climate change be affecting how our wildlife behaves?
To answer this question, Pauline is working with a team of researchers to visit iwi and hapū throughout the country. The mātauranga held by these communities extends back hundreds of years. It could reveal insights into how our plants and animals acted in the past – and how these activities are changing now.

Often when we read, we come across words which we do not understand or have never seen before. With each word in red from the text above. Write down the sentence they were used in and what you understand the meaning to be from the sentence.
