The document discusses several terms: colonisation refers to the formal control over a territory; climate change describes abnormal variations in the Earth's climate that affect other areas. It also contains several Māori proverbs, including one about people being like shags on a rock vulnerable to the tide, and work that consumes people like greenstone consumes sandstone. The final proverb is about providing for current and future generations.
