TRANSCRIPT

Colonisation:noun. formal assumption of control over a territory

Climate change:

noun. abnormal

variations to the Earth's

climate and subsequent

effects on other parts

of the Earth

He rite ana mātou ki te kauwau i runga i te toka; ka pari te tai, ka ngaro te kōhatu, ka rere te manu

We are the same as a

shag perched upon an

ocean rock; the tide

encroaches, the stone

disappears and the bird

must fly away

Toi tū te marae o TaneToit tū te marae o TangaroaToi tū te iwi

Ka patu ngā uri o Tane

Ka patu ngā uri o

TangaroaKa mate te

tangata

Mahi kai takata, he mahi kai hoaka

It is work that consumes

people, as greenstone

consumes sandstone

Mō tātou, ā, mō ka uri a muri ake nei

For us and our children after

us
