11:35 am
that contributes to some of the fastest coastal erosion in the world and i've talked to folks whose villages are literally in danger of slipping away. and for many of those alaskans it's no longer a question of if they're going to relocate but when. and my grandfather. used to say is new top or become one big. salary in ny and. the river around us and high wind comes in. it's like this one big island surrounded by the larger. otter. feel like it's getting danger danger every time it gets close.
11:36 am

11:38 am
carrots 4 years. i would like will move across the river are because it's higher ground and i think people who are thinking about stay here forget that it floods here in the. people who need to be prepared for every student by some careful. not to see place. 2 below one in which both patrols i am 19 years old and i am promised my old village called new talk if i
11:39 am
go to a school that has 137 student i am reading up a lot of bills trying to move because of climate change the talk is small place toto's opposed 350 people. we are trying to move to a place called muster with somebody 1000 miles on a new target. that. i have been in need basically all my life and it has always been the same every year we lose a number of feet of land each year what is not the same it shares the extent of the euros and because the weather isn't the same each year sometimes it curb bridge with us but most of time it does. into doesn't do last 150 feet of land from water washing line and the nurse on to the water's about 100 yards we are going to have
11:40 am
a disaster if we don't move. and 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 up. i strongly believe we can do this but we will need 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 us or surely we hunted buckets was which is a 5 gallon bucket for human waste they really don't get down into the water when it is for. according to the government it's about $230000000.00 climate change that
11:41 am
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. we'll just want to sit at a table no just. and there were no. nothing over who was the. most was too short to see a swimmer. and the waters to. you
11:42 am
know their early contacts with the stairs were mainly for trade with the trade of course and government and so with the government came post office or school so wherever they placed those structures is where these communities were told that you have to now live so regardless if your main camp which would probably your winter camp is the most prominent structure you have you can't go back there after you have to relocate your family here. they were not a one location people they were migratory and. in their way they were able to keep them there was 2 and sick their children off to boarding school they didn't live near the school and so the challenge began in that initial contact.
11:43 am
i think were part of a murder 1st for murder for grog. were. you know when. what started. as a bar. these rovers pretty cool for our. part . have. the wrong side of. this. road.
11:44 am
from your. hard to understand what the psychological impacts were and they said you no longer can to get through that and if you don't come here we're 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. it and the consequences are what we have to. report 1st of the new year's day so we got an excellent christmas lights adorning the. money i save and i bought. the editor over a crack and he's also. going back. just
11:45 am
. like. it's not a money spinner. but it is expensive. and it's dangerous. this is really speed. and the you know who breaks that's a. good stop the cut some beautiful. earth.
11:46 am
thank you ed. the frost is down now what is happening into the permafrost ended up melting it sounds you know they did it because it's melting it causes the rouge so how many people have gone and walked along the edge of the river. lots of people you wish know full well the have because that's where you guys don't your honey but it's a you know but if you do walk along there by what's happening to all of the shoreline it's going to be disappearing if you leave 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. we lost about 35 feet i was close you were close 35 feet of ground in just about 3 months while we were
11:47 am
measuring. it is fast and that means the river is 35 feet closer to the town then left and it was the year before so you guys think that the river is going to. it's 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 there's just no way around you know to travel councils families don't talk to each other just all kinds of issues that are. prompted by this river here moving in and rooting their communities.
11:48 am
these no groups or from the outside. from the community they're not originally from new to. sit through troubled ministers actually 1st cousins tom and and family here 1st because it's 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 stanley tom i'm the tribal minister for a new car chris and colmes racially so i'd like to be
11:49 am
a tribal at the ministry board in your. school teaching new intake there was a election dispute. in october a tall. the new car traditionally. console. somebody who works there. said we've never had to. hide a while. and it's an accident piece you were being accused of not having a tonight year's election when we moved in the wrong you had electric all these years i knew it was coming up. and some of the smarter words began following the money and realizing some of the money's not accounted for while they actually suspended the elections so once they suspended the election 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
11:50 am
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. it's a shack when it comes down to some 3rd world shack it's basically. a last resort for people who want to live in really tough. going to. is created a lot of problems healthwise the know we've been to the clinic several times in our
11:51 am
family structure road strollers you know dysentery and everything else just kind of was rampant through the villages at certain times for not want. or you know. i'm in talks been moving for the last 10 years it's a stalled move. some frustration levels fairly high so. sometimes you wonder if they're 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 there's no running water whatsoever so. it's a very crowded. in
11:52 am
the bush is really not for everybody. because a lot of teachers come on 12 years and they leave they don't never study. i guess is just a culture shock to. we came in 2000 some 2008. year career since. moving to village then. everybody in the roots if you could much see the water from my house to then. could look out like we look out now don't you could see the water. now. it's close we can see it always buzzing over land when it when it gets rough. before lies. we can see land working away.
