Climate Change Story

Added by Indigenous Desert Alliance

Description Climate change is here and it is having serious impacts on desert communities in Australia. The increased temperatures are making life harder, buffel grass is pushing out the bush tucker plants and kangaroos are harder to find. The rangers take the lead in talking with the community about climate change and together they come up with a plan about how they’re going to deal with it.

The Indigenous Desert Alliance has produced an animated film with the support of the Purple House Pintupi Luritja Language Group to tell a story about climate change and a community taking action to adapt to it. The key message is that climate change is part of the story now and we all need to come up with our own stories and ways to deal with it.

We can't do it alone but if it's about our community, we need to do it our way.
