Longer Growing Seasons
Opportunity: Longer period for plant growth
Challenge: Potential risks from altered seasonality
• Early bud break/loss of cold hardening
• Frost damage during spring freezing
• May advantage some invasive plants

Warmer Winters = Less Snow
Challenge:
Decreased snowpack• Increased soil frost
and root damage in cold temps
• Warmer soil temperatures and altered processes
• Changing wildlife dynamics (e.g. deer)
30-50% decreases in snowfall (also decreases in snow cover & depth)

• At least 3 interviews in each community
• Elders, harvesters, other community members
• Interviewees provide stories, teachings, knowledge about changes
• NatureServe’s Climate Change Vulnerability Index tool incorporates climate projections and literature on natural history
• Expert reviews of each being’s assessment

Manoomin (Wild rice)
“According to the little bit I know about wild rice,you have to have the water, it’s gotta be just right in order for, otherwise you're gonna drown it.”– Tom Maulson Sr., Lac du Flambeau
“You know what I was worried about this mornin’? That rain knocking my rice over.”
- Fred Ackley, Mole Lake

Final thoughts• Many resources of tribal
interest are vulnerable to climate change
• TEK and SEK complement each other and strengthen our overall knowledge of climate change vulnerability
• We need to use both knowledge systems to move forward in adapting to climate change

• Adaptation menus have been reflective of western science and a resource-centric perspective
• Needed to create a menu reflective of Traditional and Indigenous knowledge and perspectives
The need for additional perspectives

Comparing ValuesForest Adaptation Menu:
Strategy 9: Facilitate community adjustments through species transitions.
Approach 9.7: Introduce species that are expected to be adapted to future conditions.
Tribal Adaptation Menu:
Strategy 11: Encourage community adjustments and transition while maintaining reciprocity and balance.
Approach 11.4: Seek out and share traditional and cultural knowledge of potential new beings from tribal communities where these beings are native.

Research and assessments describe broad trends but local conditions and management make the difference.
Local knowledge and experience is crucial

Origins: Tribal Adaptation Menu & Guiding Principles
– Tribes/Indigenous people have been adapting to the environment and changing climate conditions since our existence
– Sense of urgency that we have to strategize a plan forward to conserve the resources or relatives that we still have
– Especially with fixed boundaries such as Treaty Ceded Territories
![Page 52: Climate Change Response Framework - Culturally Relevant Climate … · 2019. 2. 5. · climate change • TEK and SEK complement each other and strengthen our overall knowledge of](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051809/601037aab1f5480b57757f5b/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Origins: Tribal Adaptation Menu & Guiding Principles
– In the Spring of 2017, NIACS held an Adapting Forested Watersheds to Climate Change Workshop in Minocqua, WI
– Case Study Wild Rice Restoration project that was to be used with the NIACS Adaptation Workbook and Adaptation Menu
![Page 53: Climate Change Response Framework - Culturally Relevant Climate … · 2019. 2. 5. · climate change • TEK and SEK complement each other and strengthen our overall knowledge of](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051809/601037aab1f5480b57757f5b/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Purpose
– Climate adaptation approach menu revision– Decision making and conduct must be
rooted in an indigenous way – As indigenous people, we believe our truths
are still relevant and it is only now that Western facts have begun to verify knowledge that has been the foundations of our existence for millennia.

Indigenous vs. Western perspectives
– Indigenous perspectives call for observation, deliberation, recognition and adaptation
– Western perspectives more closely reflect exploration, exploitation and extraction
![Page 55: Climate Change Response Framework - Culturally Relevant Climate … · 2019. 2. 5. · climate change • TEK and SEK complement each other and strengthen our overall knowledge of](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051809/601037aab1f5480b57757f5b/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Natural World
– Instead of waiting for systems to naturally establish themselves, people assume authority and choose who they believe should be there.
– These are all rooted in a Western perspective of control and dominance over the natural world.
– Development of documents such as the Tribal Adaptation Menu, perhaps can lend to the Western perspective to view the natural world in a different way.
![Page 56: Climate Change Response Framework - Culturally Relevant Climate … · 2019. 2. 5. · climate change • TEK and SEK complement each other and strengthen our overall knowledge of](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051809/601037aab1f5480b57757f5b/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Respect, Reciprocity & Relationships (3 R’s)
– Decisions for use of our relatives were originally communal decisions made with recognition and acknowledgement through
– Today management and decision-making for land and the natural environment is made less as a communal decision and more as an individual or institutionalized.
![Page 57: Climate Change Response Framework - Culturally Relevant Climate … · 2019. 2. 5. · climate change • TEK and SEK complement each other and strengthen our overall knowledge of](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051809/601037aab1f5480b57757f5b/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Tribal Adaptation Menu
– Not intended to prescribe a singular native, tribal or indigenous approach for caring of the land and resources– The “Menu” provides suggestions to assist
in addressing needs of a particular indigenous community
– The menu may also be used by non-tribal people or organizations interested in indigenous approaches to adaptation and management

What are our take-aways?
– Understanding the underlying values and principles will guide your efforts and transform the dominant paradigm to one that is cultural, ethical, and effective.

Think about how you’re already considering the community:• Strategy 1: Consider cultural practices and seek
spiritual guidance. • Strategy 2: Learn through careful and respectful
observation (gikinawaabi). • Strategy 3: Support tribal engagement in the
environment.
