Native student filmmakers and Elders discuss climate change using the lens of their cultural heritage. The video begins with the student filmmakers explaining the meaning behind the film project, Where Words Touch the Earth, and why their involvement matters. Native Elders then share some of their observations of how climate has changed and the sense of responsibility not to stand idly by in the face of change. 

The video segment was adapted from a student video produced at Haskell Indian Nations University in Lawrence, Kansas.
