This story is about How old ways, have been ignored, and how new ways, they have changed

For thousands of years, our mob has cared for country, just as country has cared for our families. 

It is the story of country, a place so special that the stories could be heard far away. And just as those stories could be heard, they were talked about with many, and they came from afar to hear this story, a story they had not heard before 

Each circle is connected showing all our mob, coming together to talk about the changes they had seen, how the skies, they had become heavy, how country cried more and more, and when she wasn't crying, how she became hotter, so hot that the waters had gone dry, the trees, they were thirsty, the land, it was suffering

Each circle represents our families affected by climate change, some bigger than OTHERS, BUT all connected to country

The Largest circle is our mob, our communities, our ways, and shows the importance of caring for country, as the rain it has become faster, the winds they have grown stronger, the sun it has become hotter, and our country she has cried, but still she waits to be cared for again, by our ol people

The two circles on the side are the two men who travelled to this country as they yarned about change, one man, he spoke with a different tongue, he spoke fast, he spoke in new ways, but he listened!

The other man he was quiet, but he seemed to think a lot, he spoke of ideas that we had not heard of, we had dreamt of these ideas, but we needed new tools to build them And just as the men spoke, the elders yarned about these NEW WAYS, until it was agreed that bringing their ideas to our communities was needed, that it was time for change We needed to teach them fullas how to care for country, our ways!

The two men, left them Pink seeds, & just as they planted that seed, and the idea grew, them new seeds, they would turn into energy that could keep the lights on, when those winds came, and it was those seeds that would always keep us connected by caring for country, to stop country from Crying, as we work together to stop climate change in our country, the original country of Australia!
