Letter: Natives asking for fairness

SUN JOURNAL • August 5, 2020

New England has the highest projected increase of 3.6 degrees by 2035 and our urban resource center is at risk. We have manifested illness as we have lost our connection with our environment. Due to environmental factors, i.e., climate change factors like the acceleration of CO2 and inaccessible food, there are health issues, including asthma, impedance of immunity and an increase in mental health issues. We need to go back to the beginning and support indigenous sovereignty and native autonomy and agency. Make it right. Land back. ~ Heather Berube, Lewiston
