Title: Impacts of Resource Development on Native American Lands
Url: https://serc.carleton.edu/research_education/nativelands/index.html
Creator: Klauk, Erin
Publisher: Carleton College (Northfield, Minn.)
Description: When development occurs on Native American lands, there are many interested parties. They include government agencies, non-governmental organizations, human rights groups, and the tribal governments themselves. This is an excellent collection of case studies that have addressed development issues on such lands and it is offered courtesy of the Science Education Resource Center (SERC) at Carleton College. All of the case studies take an earth system approach to examining such topics, and first-time visitors can get started here by exploring the Navajo Nation's experience with uranium mining. Each area includes links to tribal websites, lesson plans and activities, cultural heritage assessments, and other materials which provide a holistic approach to understanding each area. The other case studies here cover gold mining on the Fort Belknap Indian Reservation and coal bed exploration on the Crow Reservation.
