Why Apu? Ngā Mate o te Taiao
In Episode 4, we look at all the climate change indicator’s facing Te Tai Rāwhiti from sediment, water quality to rain anxiety. We hear from the experts and locals about what they’ve observed in the last year.
Why Apu? Is a seven-part series that explores that very question why is it being consumed? A pātai which is both complex and complicated, intertwining people, culture, social conditions and the relationship to land and the environment. A combination of historical human impact, environmental degradation, cultural alienation, climate change, natural disasters and multiple government interventions. A situation which has left many locals wondering how they will remain on and in their tribal homelands.
