‘We’ve been here since time immemorial’

7.12.24 –As a hydrologist, Phoebe Suina puts her engineering education and training to work restoring and healing landscapes and communities affected by post-wildfire flooding. As an enrolled member of the Pueblo of Cochiti, she also draws on her family and traditions to steward the mountains, forests, and watersheds within her care. In the first of a two-part interview with Our Land’s Laura Paskus, Suina describes the lessons her elders share about slowing down, even as warming accelerates the impacts of climate change in New Mexico.
