Tulalip tribe is Indian tribe admitted by federal government, which is located on the Tulalip reservation in the mid-Puget Sound area bordered on the east by Interstate 5 and the city of Marysville. Tulalip tribe is a place where government allow the Snohomish, Snoqualmie, Skyimish, and other allied bands living in. the Tulalip tribe’s land cover 22,000 acres. The Tulalip tribe has abundant nature resources to supply their people’s normal life such as “marine waters, tidelands, fresh water creeks and lakes, wetlands, forests and developable land” ( who we are). Also, they have their unique language to communicate with their people which is Lushootseed –Coastal Salish. Because the traditional language should be extend, they have one master language …show more content…
teacher and 8 language teacher to teach people Lushootseed. This tribe offer an official website to let public be familiar with them. On the website, they provides lots of information such as their location, what language they are using right now, the history of Tulalip tribe, what kind of people are living in this tribe and some news related to this tribe. Education: Tulalip has approximately 2500 people, but they only have one master language teacher and 8 language teachers, which is definitely not enough for them to spread and learn their language. Because of lacking teachers and teaching facilities, Tulalip tribes are interested in purchasing the land to build an elementary school as an early childhood center, according to the local news “Tulalip Tribes may buy elementary school” said by Larry Nyland who is Marysville school district superintendent. Nyland said that once the agreement is approved, Tulalip elementary teachers and students would be move to Quil Ceda, where is six miles away from their original location. At that time, the Marysville Cooperative Education Program will manage and combine Quil Cdea elementary and Marshall elementary school. In fact, he also mentioned that the agreement, selling the land and building an elementary school to Tulalip tribe has been discussed several times over last two years. Once this agreement is passed, both of them get huge benefit. Not only Tulalip is preparing to build elementary school in order to help their people to study, they also was using special programs to improve children’s reading skills (Kristi O’ Harran). Margarita Huston who is a teacher and tutor said there is the software- Reading Plus- can not only improve students reading skills very quickly but also help students to understand what they are reading more clearly (Huston). The result is a student’s reading skill has improved from a preschool level to a ninth-grade level (Huston). Based on these fact, we can see that the Tulalip tribe is trying to consummate their education system no matter to build an elementary school or find a new way to boost students reading and understanding skills, what they did is to make their people to receive a prefect education system. Climate change: Due to the loss of salmon habitat and the climate change, which can be considered as a caution to people.
In the past, because the glaciers disappeared slowly can make people have a low temperature, clean water during the summer, but at the same time the salmon begin and end their lives. With temperature getting warmer and our glaciers melting, every stage of salmon’s life cycle is getting hurt.
According to the article “Tribes are reacting to climate change” written by Billy Frank Jr., we can find that the Tulalip tribes are trying to study ocean acidification, and climate change bring side-effect. And they also research for “The chemistry of the ocean and Puget Sound is changing because water absorbs carbon dioxide produced by fossil fuels. The Tulalip Tribes are paying careful attention to acidification's impacts on local eel grass beds while protecting the remaining beds.”
In fact, the Tulalip hold an opinion that they have no idea whether they can change climate change or not, although they do want to do it. But, meanwhile, what they need to do is to protect the salmon and habitat as many as they can.

Food: One of the most popular food in Tulalip tribe would be salmon, because of abundant nature resource of salmon. According to the article “Tulalip Days debut features traditional games, food and entertainment”, the author speak of the Tulalip Day, and the Tulalip tribes provide lots of activities, event and unique vendor. Native food such as fry bread, grilled salmon and “res dogs” (hot dogs) are offering for consumer. In fact, salmon is also can be considered as a symbol to celebrate the fishing season. Based on the article “Festival Courts Goodwill With Salmon People”, they pointed out that they had held salmon ceremony every year in order to celebrate the fishing season. During the ceremony, the tribes will pray for a safe and affluent fishing season. Their tradition is to transport salmon’s remains to the water and let it adrift to the west, where the place is the Salmon people live. If the spirit of Salmon can return to the village of the Salmon people’s home successfully, where he told them whether the Tulalips treated him appropriately. If the Salmon was treated properly, the tribe will receive an abundant fishing season. One of the Tulalip tribal member Stan Jones even said that “without the salmon, there would probably be tribe”. This is the reason why Salmon is be put such an important position within their tribe. In conclusion, Tulalip tribe is a traditional Indian tribe to use their unique language to communicate with each other.
As we know, the climate change is extremely important issue which is deeply related to our life. Although they have plentiful nature resources and they do get the benefit from the glacier melted, they pay more attention to the long-term development- to protect their nature resources and find solution. Also, this tribe emphasized the development of education, in order to meet more people’s demand, they prepared to build elementary school so that can contain more students. Meanwhile, they had held event to attract more travelers and develop their economic. This tribe become to a more likely modernization

The Muckleshoot Indian Tribe has a membership that mostly consists of descendants of the Duwamish and Puyallup people. The tribe also consists of Skopamish, Stkamish, Yilalkoamish, Tkwakwamish, Smulkamish, and the Buklshuhl. They inhabited the Central Puget Sound for many years before the reservation. After the Reservations establishment in 1857,
First of all, the Pomo tribe was located in North central California. Another example, the Pomo tribe lived in places that depended on the climate not too hot, not too cold. Pomo tribe lived in small communities of different types. One community was said to have 20 chiefs at a time and the head men lived in one main village. Also, the Pomo tribe lived in several types of shelter. Southeastern pomo used the tule reeds that grew in marshy areas around the Clear Lake to build houses. Last of all, the Pomo spoke 7 Hokan languages including Yakaya, Yokaia, Shanel, Kabinpek, and Gallinmero, and 2 more.
The Timucua Indians lived and survived in many unusual ways; but they did it the best way that they could with the little that they had. The landscape included, grass prairies interspersed with hardwood forests of oak, hickory and beech. There villages had about twenty five houses that were small and circular, with about two hundred people living in one village
The Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation is a sovereign Native American tribal entity in Washington State.

The Kiowa’s people were a great warrior culture society that roamed the plains before the arrival of the Europeans. The Kiowa’ Indian tribe formed an alliance with neighboring tribes and dominated the western plains for decades. In their native tongue they called themselves, ” Ka’gwa” which meant the “Principle People”. Before the intervention of European cultures they were known as the, ”People with large tipi flaps”. The Kiowa expanded their territories through out the southern plains, which is known as modern day Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Colorado and Texas. The mid-1900 century the Kiowa Indian tribe had several treaties with the United States, but it was the Medicine lodge treaty with the southern plains tribes that relocated the Kiowa’s into reservation located in present day Oklahoma. The Kiowa’s were known amongst other tribe as the large tipi flap people and their tipi art displayed battle emblems of Kiowa war society members. It was with horses came abundance of buffalo hide and larger tipis for the nomadic tribe, and with more hide came excellent craftsmanship. The first documented Spaniard to arrive into the southern plains was Don Juan de Onate, He gives his description of what he saw according to Peter Nabokov and Robert Easton book titled, Native American Architecture, which states the following,” fifty tents of tanned hides, very bright red and white in color and bell-shaped, with flaps and opening and built as skillfully as any house in Italy.” (Nabokov and Easton 1989) During Don Juan de Onate expedition to Eastern New Mexico he encountered tipis and described how Native tribes utilized dogs to transport their belongings. With the arrival of Spaniards in the mid-fifteenth century also came horses, which revol...
The topical focus of this paper is the Atlantic salmon fishery. In particular, this paper looks at habitat loss and salmon farming both of which have had major impacts on the sustainability of the fishery. Several efforts have been made to restore Atlantic salmon to their native habitat, specifically in Maine and New Hampshire. This paper reviews the policies that have been implemented, not yet implemented, and a proposed policy.
First and foremost, the historical accuracy of the Pipil Tribe continues to be placed under scrutiny and has been only partially documented because of the fear of government persecution. The Pipil Tribe has a unique origin descending from the Aztecs and Toltecs; diverging from a proto-Nahua culture that entered Mesoamerica around A.D. 500 (Teresa Avila and Emily Mallow). Historians support the possibility of social, political, and economic concepts of the Pipil Tribe being similar to those of the Aztecs.
Melting glaciers, dying animals, and invasive species, what is happening? The end of the world nope just a few effects of climate change on the Tundra. I’m Doctor Shannon Gallagher, a scientist working to stop climate change in the Tundra and around the world. There are may problems of climate change in the tundra but let me start telling you about a big one. This problem is that the glaciers are starting to melt faster which could flood the rivers they feed into and once the glaciers are gone then some rivers will dry up. Even though there are many more ways the tundra is effected let’s talk a little about this proposal before you learn more. With evidence from past and present this proposal will reduce the effects of climate change on the tundra by proposing funding be allocated to the use and encouragement of renewable resources and preserving the tundra ecosystem by stopping damage from coming to the habitat or food chain.
Atlantic salmon have become the species of choice to raise on farms because they are more adaptable to the farming techniques and make better use of feed so they produce more salmon with less feed. Not everybody agrees however, that farmed salmon raised in net pens are healthy for the environment or for you to eat. Over the years, there have been numerous stories in the media that have pointed out the negatives of farm raised salmon. These arguments have ranged from wastes from salmon farms, the spreading of disease from farmed to wild fish, the negative impacts of farm raised fish escapes and interacting with native fish, and recently, the effects of farmed salmon consumption on human health. The latest issue that the media got there hands on and consequently got the public concerned, was a report that polychlorinated... ...
One point I would like to mention, is that Global Warming is causing sea level to rise. Some evidence to back that idea up, is that with temperatures rising abnormally, scientist think that with temperatures rising, ice caps on the North and South Pole are losing ice, that could maybe lose all of the animals living there, like polar bears, or walruses. Also, even though “CNN” states that
From the research that I have conducted, I have realized how integral Greenland is in the dialogue on global warming and abrupt cooling; furthermore, I recognize that climate change needs to be of global concern, not only to scientists, but to the government and all citizens; every regional climate change in the Northern Hemisphere directly influences temperature and precipitation in the Southern Hemisphere. We are all connected, and it is imperative that humans intervene and become aware of how their environmental choices may affect biodiversity around the world.

Climate change has become of the world’s major issue today. The earth’s climate is always changing in a very fast and also in different ways. Climate changes affect our lives psychologically, emotional and also physically. Climate change is defined as a long term change in the earth’s climate, especially a change due to the increase in the average atmospheric temperatures. Due to this change in temperature, a lot of changes has occurred in our environment, these changes include rising sea levels, flooding, melting of polar ice caps, hotter days, colder nights and heat waves. These climate changes plays an important role in shaping our natural ecosystem, our human economics and also the most important, it affects the human race. For
Climate change is an issue that will not only affect every living creature today, but it will affect all of the future humans and creatures that will exist as well. Leaving the environment as an uninhabitable wasteland is one of the many possible outcomes of the increased global temperature. There are many reasons behind climate change, some are natural and some are due to human activities, but stopping these potentially harmful effects is crucial to the survival of the human race. Climate change does not specifically affect one nation, area, or race. It affects everyone and everything. Climate change is a major issue in today’s society and will affect every future generation. Whether one believes in climate change or not, it’s
