Based on his investigative Newsroom series, Aaron Smale's Tairawhiti: Pine, Profit and the Cyclone goes deep into the region's struggle with colonial legacies and environmental mismanagement. Through personal stories, interviews and critical analysis, Smale uncovers the multifaceted impacts of pine plantations, land confiscation and climate events of increasing severity on a landscape and its people.
This BWB Text provides a nuanced understanding of the socioeconomic and ecological challenges facing the Tairawhiti community and points toward a path that will honour and sustain the future.
